Mary Marshall (née Paley; 24 October 1850 – 19 March 1944)[1] was a Britsh economist who in 1874 was one of the first women to take the Tripos examination at Cambridge University – although, as a woman, she was excluded from receiving a degree.[2] She was one of a group of five women who were the first to be admitted to study at Newnham College, the second women's college to be founded at the University.[3]
