Excerpt from The History of the Workhouse: Or Poor's Hospital of Aberdeen From 1739 to 1818, Its Boys' Hospital From 1818 to 1852, Girls' Hospital From 1828 to 1852, and Its Boys' and Girls' Hospitals From 1852 to 1885 Masher, objects of attraction.

I agreed, and am now about to give the results of a lot of curious reading in old forgotten minute books, &c.
