Excerpt from Hester Stanley at St. Marks
T was recreation in the great school-room at Waterways, during the gloomy sunset-hour, when books and pencils were thrown ‘by, and the girls were left to their own wills by the tired teachers, as glad as they of the intermission.
The girls a thousand pardons, the young ladies - were improving the hour; these in locked embrace sauntering up and down the open space those in coteries discussing some tremendous secret others amusing themselves with the black boards and crayons, and the rest busy with romp ing games.
