Part 5 – Fever 1793

Hi again! Welcome to the 5th post of the Fever 1793 book club. Matilda said a prayer before Grandfather was buried because the minister wasn’t there. As she was walking on the streets, she found this orphan named, Nell, whose mother had died. Matilda then found Eliza, the coffeehouse cook, and later lived with her, her brother Joseph, his two sons, and Mother Smith. Matilda was going to put Nell into an orphan house but there were too many people so she let her stay with her. Nell and the twins got the yellow fever. 1. The question of this post is this: Do you think Matilda is mature enough to take care of Nell? Explain. 2. Read pages 200-243.

  1. Yes,because she took care of grandfather when he was sick and he really didn’t help at all so I think she can take care of Nell.
