Molly's Dream
What dream does Molly have?
Molly has a dream to live in the house she often thinks about, and to live freely, like Mrs. Simmons. She has a dream to own her own business, to be as skilled and intelligent like Mrs. Simmons was. She would love to live in a small house with a pond and ducks and geese, like in her sampler. Molly is also in training to be a seamstress.
What will she need to do to make her dream come true?
She will need to first of all finish her indenture, because she is an indentured servant. She will also need to finish her training to be a seamstress, so she can own a business and earn money for herself. When she is done both, she can finally be free.
