CHAPTER 1

S
omewhere in England there was a small town, which was much like all
the other small towns around the year 1830. In the middle of this town was a
building called the workhouse. It was a plain brick building for very poor people. and help understanding
Here they could find shelter or food if they were starving, but only the hungriest and
most desperate went there. In the workhouse, a baby boy had just been born. It wasnt
clear if the baby would live, because he was having trouble breathing. But after a
struggle, the baby breathed, sneezed, and then started to cry as loud as he could.
A young woman raised her pale face from the pillow. In a low voice she said: Let
me see the child, and die.
Oh, you must not talk of dying yet! said the doctor kindly, as he took the baby
and gave him to his mother. She kissed her sons forehead lovingly with her cold lips.
The doctor saw that she was very weak, and left the room to get some more medicine.
Meanwhile, the young woman took a gold locket from around her neck, and gave it
to the nurse.
This is the only thing I own, she said. You must give it to my son when he is
older. Then she took one last look at her baby, shivered, and fell back dead!
Curious, the nurse looked at the locket. She opened it, and saw two locks of hair,
and a gold wedding ring. The name Agnes was carved inside the ring, but there was
no last name. When she heard the doctor returning, she quickly dropped the gold
locket in her pocket.
It is all over, the doctor said, after a glance at the young mother. She was a good-
looking woman. Who was she? Where did she come from?
She was found lying in the street last night, replied the nurse. Her shoes were
worn out from walking. But we dont know her name, or where she came from, or
where she was going. The nurse didnt say anything about the gold locket in her
pocket.
The matron of the workhouse picked two letters from the alphabet, O and T, and
named the boy Oliver Twist. If the baby had known what his life would be like at the
workhouse, he would probably have cried even louder. He was just one of many babies
born there, often without names. The government gave the matron, Mrs Corney, a
little money to feed each child. But Mrs Corney liked money much more than she
liked the miserable children and she kept most of the money for herself.
By the time Oliver was ten years old, he was very thin and short, with a pale but
sweet face. One day Mrs Corney called him to speak to him.
You know youre an orphan that you have no father or mother, and that you
have been brought up by us here?
Yes maam, said Oliver, shaking with fear.
You must be taught a useful trade, said the matron.

The next morning, Smith woke up and asked: Island or continent?
The men didn't know, so he asked: Is there a fire?
No, Pencroff replied, and explained the reason.
Never mind, Smith said, we'll make one. But first I need to gain
back my strength. I need some food, so you must go hunting.
And that is exactly what Pencroff, Neb, Harbert and Top immediately
did, bringing back enough rabbits for all to eat.
I wonder how we'll cook them, Pencroff complained on the way to
the Chimneys. To his surprise, a fire was already burning when they
returned.
I used the sun, Smith explained. I put the crystals from our watches
together, like a magnifying glass. The sun shone through them and started
a fire.
Amazing, Pencroff said. After that, he believed Cyrus Smith could do
anything!
The next few days were spent exploring. First, they climbed the tallest
mountain they could find. They discovered it was an ancient volcano.
When they reached the top, they looked around. The sea surrounded them
on all sides. An island! Cyrus Smith exclaimed. For a few moments, all
the men were silent. Then Smith spoke:
My friends, I will be honest with you. We are far from any land where
people live. A ship may rescue us, but we cannot be sure any ships pass
close to here. I am afraid we will have to stay on this island for a long
time.

depend on us. The others added that they trusted their leader completely.
