Description
"The Board of Guardians were authorized to put to service as apprentices to a trade or calling all poor children who became chargeable. That is, the children of poor persons who died without leaving any property or any persons bound by law to maintain their children, or children abandoned by living parents. Males were to be bound until the age of 21, females to the age of 18. The guardians were authorized to apprentice all children that have received public support, either in the almshouse or children's asylum." -- Prelim. p.
