The room in which the boys were fed was a large stone hall, with a large pot at one end. P30

The bowls never needed washing, as the boys cleaned them with their spoons,

trying to eat every bit of soup.

Oliver, who was desperate with hunger and misery, rose from the table and walked

towards the master with his bowl and spoon in his hand.

He stared in complete astonishment at the child and held on to the pot for support.

with the soup spoon.
