Annie Besant

CHAPTER XIV
40/46

After a good deal of discussion she fixed on the establishment of a club in East London for working girls, and with her approval Miss Laura Cooper and I hunted for a suitable place.

Finally we fixed on a very large and old house, 193, Bow Road, and some months went in its complete renovation and the building of a hall attached to it.

On August 15th it was opened by Madame Blavatsky, and dedicated by her to the brightening of the lot of hardworking and underpaid girls.

It has nobly fulfilled its mission for the last three years.

Very tender was H.P.B.'s heart to human suffering, especially to that of women and children.
