The Library of Congress said:
Thank you Wystan and artolog for your comments on the dates of these images, which encouraged us to look at them more closely. The above image and the two noted in Wystan's comment are from the same Barnard Ivy day celebration which took place in June 1911. Take a look at the ivy plant under the columns and the woman in the white headband on the left who appears in the back of the crowd in all three images. The above image appears to show the class of 1913 holding a banner, standing across from the graduating class of 1911, who are in caps and gowns.

Grace was nominated for a position at the Hospital for Sick Children. Despite excellent references, her application was rejected: the objection was 'not against [Dr Robinson] as an individual but against the female doctor in the abstract'.

Ironing wasn't a priority? Pretty woman though.

Coincidently, the house her father had built in 1893 (the same year Grace graduated) at Guildford, N.S.W., is now the site of Holroyd Private Hospital. Grace and her mother inherited the house and property in 1894, following her father's death and retained ownership until 1905.
