Several days later, my grandaunt Miss Betsey sent me to a new school. It was very different from the last one. My last school was very poor and the teachers were so strict. But here, the headmaster Dr. Strong was an excellent teacher and an intelligent man. He enjoyed teaching and never punished anyone. I felt so excited and happy about everything here that I fell in love with the new school immediately. Soon I made many new friends.

Mr. Wickfield was the lawyer of my grandaunt’s and I lived in his house. His daughter Agnes was like a sister and treated me very well. She often helped me with my studies and also helped her father with everything. I had lived a happy life with them for years.

At the age of seventeen, I finished my studies. I was young with education and confidence. My grandaunt wished me to be a lawyer and gave me enough money. So I decided to go to London. I thought my future would be better there.
