NotesSent by Ipswich Union

with Miss Maunsell, 6 Sullivan St, Port Hope, Ontario

May 23 1900

She thinks she is about 16 or 17 years of age, excellent situation, employed as general servant, a stout healthy girl, attends Church of England, is a fair scholar, character-a thoroughly honest girl, character generally good but very obstinate. Terms-$9 per year with an annual increase. At first she gave Miss Maunsell good satisfaction but of late she has not been at all satisfactory. She is disobedient and self willed at times. The girl states that she is quite satisfied with her place; likes her work which is not too hard; is treated well, and has no reason to complain. She has been here since August 1889 (note I think this should say 1899)
