| Description | Elizabeth refers to a German boy who was always 'lingering' around the school paying 'silent adorations' to one of the girls by continually walking past the windows of the school's sitting and dining rooms which looked onto the street. Elizabeth writes that the girls had been moved into a different room to discourage the boy, adding that Miss Trinks had moved her office into the sitting room and had curtains hung. Elizabeth writes that Miss Trinks had gone out of school for a whole day to visit the dentist and had returned, much to Elizabeth's surprise, with a complete set of false teeth. |
