Alma didn't spend Christmas with Anne and Mrs. Lewis; rather she spent it with her friends Mabel and Lil in Philadelphia. See:
1915-12-26 LETTER FRAGMENT FROM EVA TO ALMA
I'm surprised to learn that Alma was the head of Mount Holyoke's botany department at this time. My understanding is that she didn't get tenure until 1916.
The meetings at Columbus were when the Ecological Society of America was founded. We know from an obituary for Anne that she was a member. Alma's obituary doesn't mention it, but that doesn't mean she wasn't a member.
