HARD TIMES MAKE HARD PEOPLE

When ten-year-old Dinah Kirkham saw her father leaving in the middle of the night, she asked when he would be back. "Soon", he said. On that night in 1829, John Kirkham built the foundation of his daughter's certainty that the only person that she could ever really trust was herself.

From that day forward, Dinah worked to support her family, remaining fiercely devoted to their wealfare even in the face of despair.
