The Blue-Coat Boys
Excerpt from The Blue-Coat Boys: Or, School Life in Christ's Hospital; With a Short History of the Foundation The materials for this little book were put together eighteen months ago, when, at the request of the much-respected President of the London Short-hand Writers' Association, T.
