My Uncle and Betsy Snap. " As my uncle adjured her to look at me, he put his lean grip on the crown of her head, she kneeling beside him, and turned her face towards me. An involuntary thought connecting them both with the Dissecting Room, as it must often have been in the surgeon's time, passed across my mind." Illustration by Harry Furniss for the Charles Dickens Christmas story The Poor Relation's Story, from The Testimonial Edition, published 1910.
