Orphan Train / James Magnuson and Dorothea G. Petrie 201 p.

In 1853, Emma Symns of the Children’s Aid Society is mildly courted by daguerreotypist Frank Carlin while transporting the orphans to rural Illinois. There are lots of happenings: hoedown, Uncle Tom’s Cabin play, death, runaway slave. All in all rather insipid telling of the orphans trains.
