Miss Campbell, who was born at Reading, is the daughter of Henry W. Campbell. She received her education in the public schools and the high school at Lowell from which she graduated in 1905, afterward taking a course at a commercial school in Lawrence.
Since graduating from school, she has been connected with the local public library. She succeeds the late Sumner French, who had held the office fop 26 years, until his death last June. She is a lineal descendant of General John Stark.
