NotesSent by Edmonton Union,

residing at Dr Barnardo's Home, Hazel Brae, P.O Peterborough, Peterborough County, Ontario

June 5 1900

Age 8, this little girl has not yet been found a home owing to her age and size, and is perhaps not of strong will. When placed out great care will be exercised in choosing a home for her. Employed at easy work about the house, learning to sew and attends private school daily in the Home. Good health. Attends Methodist church. Character-Good.

Age 12, Upon calling at the above address, I found that this girl had left here in August last.

with Mrs R Needham, Pakenham, Lanark, Ontario

September 17 1902

Age 12, satisfactorily placed, employed at housework, good health, attends Church of England, character fair. They find it difficult to manage this girl. She is very headstrong and Mrs Needham says that it is very trying to put up with her impudence. They are anxious to giver her a fair trial, however, and if she improves they will keep her. She has been here only two weeks
