Little Abode for Children - Chapter 4

 


The Children

The children were mostly from Chicago. A few of them were from Milwaukee. The railroads carried them to Kenosha, the picturesque town by the lake Michigan.

Coming from North or South, their stories were almost the same. All of them either escaped a terrible home or fled from a dangerous neighborhood. Many of them had at least one parent in jail. Many of them used to be beaten to bleed either by a harsh stepparent, or by an aggressive stepsibling, or by a drug addict half sibling, or by a gang banger cousin. Some escaped schools as gangs started using schools for gang initiation. 

Many of them found a safe home with Mrs. Kirk and other members of Kenosha Knitting Circle, like Teressa’s Aunt Mary. They found hope in learning and joy in living at gracious foster homes. For them, the library was their gateway to the universe of knowledge.

After Teressa’s disappearance, they used to gather at the library to help each other learn. It was their way of paying respect to Teressa.
