Her countenance is strong and impressive, her hair jet black, cut short, and worn without cap; her dress of the most simple and least costly kind.

Her sole desire seems to be to do the will of her Lord and Master in caring for 170 poor children, who are in the institution at bed, board, and instruction.

The forenoon was spent in looking over the schools and hearing the children examined.

The house is a refuge for the lame, blind, deaf, dumb, and sick.

Peace and contentment prevail through the whole.
