Westminster Ragged-School Children in Claydon-Park, 1850. Creator: Unknown

Westminster Ragged-School Children in Claydon-Park, 1850. London children travel to Buckinghamshire by train....the Rev. W. R. Fremantle, Rector of Claydon... expressed his thankfulness that men of energy and piety had been found who would penetrate these haunts of poverty and sin...he told the children present how grateful they should be to those kind friends who had...gathered them into schools, where they might learn not only how to become respectable members of society in this world, but how to prepare for another...the children were let out to play - the girls upon the lawn, and the boys in the park...[They] manifested the most lively interest in the natural objects by which many of them for the first time in their lives saw themselves surrounded, and took...as much pleasure in examining these as in playing with the balls and swings which had been provided...'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850
