One of the ways Ms. Nightingale spoiled me (Gladys) was by allowing me to have a dog. The dog gave me company when she had no place to go during breaks. My parents gave authority for me to spend holiday with any girl's family where I would be welcomed. The school always knew where I would be. Of course, I had to go somewhere given my parents were in the Yucatan in Mexico. Miss Nightingale was basically my guardian in that she assured my parents that I would be taken care of, having given them her personal assurance. She was one of the most wonderful ladies I had ever known. My dog lived a wonderful life in the kitchen eating extremely well! Miss Nightingale would often have me and my dog to her cabin on holidays. The cabin was located by Snowdon just before going up the mountain.
