Jane 75
PART FOUR - LIFE AT MOOR HOUSE
CHAPTER NINETEEN
Finding a Home
After traveling for two days, I arrived on the Moor, a huge area with grass and many hills. After the coach left, I realized that I had left my clothes inside it, and that I had no money. I was alone on the open Moor! There were many white roads that went across the Moor. I walked until I found a dry place to sleep under a small hill. Luckily it was a warm night, with no rain. The next day was hot and sunny, and I needed food and water, so I knew I had to find a village.
I walked down one of the roads until I found a group of houses. I knocked on the doors and asked if there was any work I could do, but no one could help me. I could not beg for food, although I was extremely hungry. That night I slept outside again, but this time the air was cold. The next day I looked for work again, but there was nothing for me to do. I was now very weak from hunger. I began to wonder why I should try to stay alive, when I did not want to alive.
