Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, a compilation of detailed annual reports, provides an overview of Houses of Refuge and Orphan and Magdalen Asylums in the Province of Ontario, for an 18-month period ending September 30, 1884. The author takes a critical look at each institution, examining their operations, finances, and inmates. While the primary focus is on the state of these facilities and their occupants during this time, insights are also provided into the broader history of charitable institutions in the province and the social conditions that gave rise to them. Thematic depth is added through discussions of sex, religious denominations, nationalities, and previous residences of inmates, as well as an exploration of the challenges faced by these institutions, such as overcrowding and a lack of resources. This book offers a valuable resource for researchers interested in the history of social welfare in Ontario and provides a glimpse into the lives of those who sought refuge and assistance during this period.
