should not come any more as I had gone early that I should get home
early. It was nearly six o'clock when I stopped. They are a lovely
family of four men and four girls, all of whom are are very fine indeed;
two sons married, and children, and one daughter married and she has two
little ones. Miss Josephine is a school teacher. Miss Alice is the
housekeeper, as the mother is not very well at times. One of the lovely
girls is a Sister in a convent.

I also did work for her daughter, Mrs. Nellie Chester, and she is a
lovely woman. I had to lose her work as she had to get her a girl.

I also worked for fine families by the names of Mrs. Handford and Mrs.
Taylor, but they went away from this city.




CHAPTER VI


I am now doing work for a lovely family by the name of Mrs. Coddington,
as her husband has died not long since, and he was a nice man and they
have two lovely girls that teach school. I also work for Mrs. White, who
is a lovely lady, and all of her family.

At the Pells and the Powells. Mrs. Pell is a lovely woman, with two
children, one a lovely young lady and full of the sweetest music the ear
ever heard, for I do not think that there ever was any one that could
play sweeter music than her. The other is a boy, a nice youngster of
promise.
