Excerpt from The Story of Patsy: A Reminiscence
T had been a long, wearisome day at the charity Kindergarten, and the teacher was alone in the silent, deserted room. Gone were all the little heads, yellow and black, frizzled and smooth; the dancing, restless, curious eyes; the too mischievous, naughty, eager hands and noisy feet, that had made the great room human, but now left it quiet and empty. Eighty pairs of tiny boots had clattered down the stairs; eighty baby woes had been relieved; eighty little torn coats pulled on with loving hands; eighty sloppy little kisses fondly pressed on a willing cheek, and another day was over.
