Profile
When Anna Schmidt is crying uncontrollably in class and refuses to tell anyone what's wrong, Jeremy Brown goes to Miss Courtney's office to voice his concerns. Miss Courtney tells him about Miss Rowbotham, a student who was in the needlework class last term and behaved exactly the same way when she discovered she was pregnant. This leads Mr. Brown to believe that Anna is pregnant too, and results in a misunderstanding when he tries to broach the subject with her delicately and learns that the Home Secretary is responsible for her predicament.
