Interviewer's Comment

Mrs. Samuels is an amusing little woman, she must be about 80 years old,

but holds to the age of 60. Had she given her right age, the people for

whom she works would have helped her to get her pension.

They are amused, yet provoked because Lizzie wants to be younger than

she really is.
