with Mrs McNicoll, P.O Ravenscliffe, Muskoka, Ontario

September 5 1900

Age 10, well selected home, no work expected of her, splendid health, attends Church of England and Public school regularly, character good, terms-Mary Davis and her sister Ada are boarded here by Dr Barnardo and they certainly have a splendid home.
Mrs McNicoll is a Post mistress. The general appearance of the little girls speak well for the care they receive. Their teacher informed me that they are making good progress with their studies, and she regards them as her best pupils. Mrs McNicol is teaching them to do house work, sewing, knitting and other useful things

with Mrs Ernest Goldthorp, Huntsville, Muskoka, Ontario

July 9 1902

About 12 years of age, employed at general housework and care of children, healthy, attends Church of England and Sunday School.
Attended Public School regularly during the term while with Mrs McNicoll-very satisfactory character. At present board, clothing and schooling. She has been here about 10 days. She is a superior looking girl and has a very comfortable home with a niece of Mrs McNicoll. She is happy and likes her place, being particularly fond of the children.
