Kip. 40: Miss Amelia's Tears

40

Sara tries to keep warm in the stable, and the Headmistress goes to see the mayor. Amelia is left in charge, to the girls' delight (especially Sara and Becky). Amelia wants to take the students on a field trip (including a picnic lunch) after church, but her fear of dogs ruins the outing. Peter takes the injured Amelia back to the Seminary, and Sara goes in search of the inebriated Dr. Wild. Amelia describes life with Maria Minchin before she became headmistress of the Seminary, without compassion or gratitude. (Source: Wikipedia)
