This inscription was written by a young girl named Annie Faires, who was an orphan staying at Miss Carr’s Children’s Home on Northbrook Road, Dublin, in 1921. Annie was thirteen years old at the time. In 1922 it is believed that she left Ireland for the UK, and was employed as a maid in Colwyn Bay, Wales. The title of this book from Letts (1882-1972) inspired the title for this exhibition.
