AN
ANGEL
OF
CHARITY
There
are
two
kinds
of
people
,
those
who
leave
things
,
good
or
bad
,
as
they
are
,
because
they
are
afraid
of
change
;
and
those
who
set
out
to
change
them
when
they
are
bad
,
in
spite
of
difficulties
or
criticisms
.
This
angel
to
the
second
group
.
She
born
of
British
parents
in
Florence
,
Italy
,
on
May
12
,
1820
.
Fortunately
for
her
,
they
were
wealthy
and
cultured
,
and
she
receive
the
fine
education
of
young
women
of
her
days
,
plus
classical
studies
and
mathematics
.
In
addition
,
the
family
extensively
in
Europe
,
and
this
her
and
her
sister
opportunities
for
learning
more
.
Some
people
have
a
calling
for
art
,
or
for
religion
,
or
for
politics
,
she
a
calling
for
helping
the
sick
.
Unfortunately
girls
,
especially
high
society
girls
,
not
supposed
to
work
,
and
nurses
were
considered
almost
like
servants
.
In
addition
to
these
two
things
,
there
no
training
schools
for
nurses
in
England
.
She
and
,
and
finally
,
in
1851
,
permission
to
go
to
France
to
the
hospital
of
the
Sisters
of
Mercy
to
learn
what
she
about
nursing
,
and
to
Germany
,
to
the
Institute
of
Protestant
Deaconesses
in
Kaiserswerth
,
with
the
same
purpose
.
Both
were
short
periods
of
training
,
but
she
was
interested
and
she
was
intelligent
and
also
on
her
own
,
so
,
two
years
later
she
was
appointed
superintendent
of
a
hospital
for
invalid
ladies
and
she
an
immediate
success
.
