Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Journey of Life In preparing this little book, entitled, "The Journey of Life," which, through the intercession of my friends, I have at last decided to place before the public, I shall endeavor to give my readers little snatches only, from my life´s experience: 1. Childhood, up to nine years. 2. How some of us came to go to the Shakers. 3. Scattering experiences while there. 4. Experience as a hired girl after leaving. Had I appreciated my work as highly as many others seem to, my productions would have been placed before the public long before I was 75. And it might have saved me from the embarrassing position of a "hired girl." And as far as public opinion is concerned, "degrading." I never dreamed at that time, that the position of a housework girl was looked upon as degrading. At the Shakers we were taught that all were equal who were in any respectable service, and it was thought to be a great accomplishment to be a good housekeeper and cook; hence my surprise when I found out how hired girls were treated and looked down upon.
