 “ The scanty supply of food was distressing […] whenever the 
famished great girls had an opportunity, they would coax or 
menace the little ones out of their portion […] after relinquishing to 
a third [girl] the contents of my mug of coffee, I have swallowed the 
remainder with an accompaniment of secret tears, forced from me 
by the exigency of hunger” (122). 
 “Several wealthy and benevolent individuals in the county 
subscribed largely for the erection of a more convenient building in 
a better situation; new regulations were made; improvements in 
diet and clothing introduced; the funds of the school were 
entrusted to the management of a committee” (149). 
 “Poverty looks grim to grown people; still more so to children: they 
have not much idea of industrious, working, respectable poverty” 
(82).
