I beg your pardon, sir, for being troublesome but have you had any letter yet about me?" is the question i have choose for this reflection. It was quoted by sissy to mr. gradgrind on chapter 9, page 36 of the reading hard times" by charles dickens. When mr. m"choakumchild is teaching national prosperity, proportions and statistics, Her responses are based more on compassion that on calculation. Louisa asks sissy about what her life was like before and she learns that the girl"s mother died when she was very young. Talking about her father, sissy admits that he has left her but he has left her for her own good. He traveled as a clown but as he got older his skills weakened.
