Excerpt from Daisy Travers: Or, the Girls of Hive HallShe was nearly Sixteen, small, but faultless in form, with a sad, sweet face, deep blue eyes and hair - well, it was light, long and naturally curly, poor words to express all its beauty.Her short struggle with poverty had awakened in her a sympathy for the poor, that few girls of her age can understand. Her last charitable whim, the founding of Hive Hall, was one that would be likely to cause her much trouble, and anxiety, but if carried bravely through, her compensation would be evident. The twenty-five Children before her had been taken from miser ably-conducted country poor-houses, and bound to grandfather Milly: why they were there we will let Daisy tell.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
