34. DELICATE CHILDREN.

I had my three children in two years and five months, and all the

time I carried I had violent sickness, night and day, under a doctor

practically the whole time, who, of course, were unable to prevent

my suffering. The result was my babies were delicate; the last one

suffered with gastritis the whole of its short life--four years and

ten months--which ended in peritonitis and abdominal tuberculosis. I

have the eldest one still, but he is very delicate and unable to attend

school.

_Wages 21s. to 27s.; three children._
