IndoorDame I think it said dad became a minister after the war, but I don‘t know enough about the church to have any idea who or what subsidies a minister (now or back then) 8mo
Cuilin @IndoorDame @peanutnine I think he was a minister too. I believe he was a chaplain in the army also. (edited) 8mo
Bookwormjillk He kind of said he‘s been waiting 30 years for someone to recognize his genius like that was a good thing. 8mo
dabbe I don't think ministers made diddly squat back then. I don't think they make much today either. In the book CLEAR for #CampLitsy, one of the main characters was a minister in the 1800s who needed side jobs just to get by--one of which was removing a man from an island during the Scottish Clearances. 8mo
willaful @Bookwormjillk 🤣

He's a minister so I guess he has some kind of “living“?

Clare-Dragonfly I have always wondered if the quotes from Jo‘s reviews are actual quotes from reviews of the original first book of Little Women. Some of them certainly sound like it! 8mo
julieclair @Clare-Dragonfly I also wondered if the whole writing and editing process was autobiographical. 8mo
mcctrish @dabbe in Clear the side gigs were to raise money to rent a space to attract a congreagation that would then tithe the church and fund the minister 8mo
mcctrish Mr March would only be as wealthy as his congregation so he‘d be wanting a wealthy benefactor and he‘d use his own money to help and support the poor within his parish 8mo
