Excerpt
Excerpt: Chapter 1. Joe Brownlow?s Fancy. The lady said, ?An orphan?s fate Is sad and hard to bear.? --Scott ?MOTHER, you could do a great kindness.? ?Well, Joe?? ?If you would have the little teacher at the Miss Heath?s here for the holidays. After all the rest, she has had the measles last and worst, and they don?t know what to do with her, for she came from the asylum for officers? daughters, and has no home at all, and they must go away to have the house purified. They can?t take her with them, for their sister has children, and she will have to roam from room to room before the whitewashers, which is not what I should wish in the critical state of chest left by measles.?
