“The Special Claim of the Vulnerable.
Enter Harris Manchester College in Oxford by the main entrance, go into the foyer, turn right and walk to the end of the corridor. There you will find a collection of wall memorials. The first of these is to a person called Frances Power Cobbe, 1822-1904. And the inscription reads: ‘Writer on philosophy and religion and a pioneer in social reform’. The memorial was presented to the College by Mrs S. Woolcott Browne in 1908, four years after Cobbe’s death.”189

Obituary in The Times Jan 6 1909: Her death removed "another of Mrs. Josephine Butler's old fellow-workers. Her attention had early been called to the withering effects of a double standard of morality, and she was one who was not deterred from action by any consideration of what the world thought. She gave freely in effort and money to the many societies which worked for social purity; and in 1881, to form a centre of inter-communication, she founded the Moral Reform Union, of which during nearly ten years she was the indefatigable hon. secretary and the inspiration."190
