I have almost finished drafting the notes (c. 1175) for “Jacob’s Room”. It had never occurred to me until now that *this* was going to be a problem:
“The Wesleyan minister came along and took the younger boy.”
I know that Methodism was very popular in Cornwall, and I’ve kept assuming that I was going to easily find a useful book about it, but I haven’t. I suppose this optimism prevented me from thinking clearly about the text.
Where has the minister taken Mrs Pascoe’s son? What for? Is it schooling?
Why can’t I find anything?!
