Infos

THE family lawyer had left her; she had listened with tightened lips, as through a labyrinth of legal phrases, he had informed her that she could only count upon five-and-twenty pounds per annum to feed, clothe, and provide for herself a roof to shelter her. She found herself smiling at the very absurdity of it. For six-and-twenty years she had lived in ease and comfort, almost in luxury. She had read in books about these reverses, but never had she imagined that they would come to her. She had not been educated for adversity, and she knew that not for a moment could she compete with the hundreds of trained certificated women who were flooding the labour markets throughout the country.

Autor

Amy (Amelia Sophia) Le Feuvre (1861-1929) was born into a large family in Blackheath, London in the first part of 1861 and educated by a governess. She dedicated herself to writing children's literature and used her stories to teach Biblical principles. The quaint child, the child with delicate health, the naughty, misunderstood child were some of her favourite characters. Her first book Eric's Good News came out in 1894. She was a prolific author and wrote some 65 books in her career. She died on April 29, 1929 in Exeter, Devon.
