View the Case Summary.

a bright intelligent child & he has great hopes of him. I quite think he will be able to learn tailoring when he is older. At present he goes to school in an old perambulator, as it is some little distance from home, & a steep hill to come back, & his brothers take him backwards & forwards to school. A shorter distance & an easier road he might do on crutches.
