What's your opinion of Jessie, Emily?
Do you think she'll ever be fit to teach ?' 'She might, if she could live apart from her mother and sisters for a time.

I think she'll have to come here for her lessons; it's out of the question to do anything at that house.' It was Mr.Hood's habit to spend his evenings in a little room at the top of the house, which he called his laboratory.

It was furnished with a deal table, a couple of chairs, and some shelves.

On the table was his apparatus for the study of electricity, mostly the product of his own ingenuity; also a number of retorts, crucibles, test-tubes, and the like, wherewith he experimented chemically.

The shelves exhibited bottles and jars, and the dozen or so volumes which made his scientific library.
