Woman of the Century — Katharine Johnson Jackson (1893)
“ Jackson has always enjoyed active physical exercise, especially housework, in which she became proficient as a young girl. She was also fond of out- door sports and walking, and could never so perfectly master a Latin or history lesson, as after a long walk over the hills or vigorous indoor work. In later life, whenever she could have, as rarely happened, what she calls a "play spell" of housework, she has found it the most satisfactory relief from professional taxation. ”
