Opened in 1851, The New York Juvenile Asylum merged with the Children's Village in Dobbs Ferry, N.Y. I recently acquired "A Day With Dr. Brooks" authored by Mary E. Dodge. It appeared in the December, 1870 issue of Scribner's Magazine, pgs. 36 - 58. It is a compelling story. I am putting it up in segments. The fourth installment is available: http://iagenweb.org/iaorphans/resources/brooks04.shtml Tina Vickery http://iagenweb.org/iaorphans/ http://iagenweb.org/iaorphans/whats_new.shtml
