NotesSent by Middlesbrough Union

March 5 1903 first with Mr Parson, Carman, Manitoba, now with Mrs James Proctor, Oswald, Manitoba

Age 13, a comfortable farm house, employed at domestic work entirely, looks somewhat thin and pale, has a very bad ring worm on the left wrist, but says he has had no sickness to speak of, attends Church of England, has not attended school, character very untruthful, but good otherwise-willing and obedient. Terms-Board, Lodging, Clothing and $100 at end of term.
The character of the boy as given above is according to Mr Proctors statement. Mrs Proctor is ill in bed consequently I did not see her. Mr Proctor is a well to do English farmer of a long standing in the Community. The boy is not strong looking and perhaps suffers from confinement to the house. He complains at being kept at housework, in fact cried, at which Mr Proctor seemed very angry, and told me that he had no other use for the boy-that he is his wife's servant entirely. Probably the boy would be better satisfied and better physically at outdoor work.
