 REPORT 
 
 Rome, February Wtli, 1877. 
 
 On the 14th of February, a year elapsed since the 
 Committee took charge of the Italo- American Schools(*) 
 and Home so heroically conducted by Mrs Gould, and 
 determined to continue them under the new name of 
 the " Gould Memorial Home. " 
 
 The Committee feel it therefore a pleasing duty to 
 render an account of their year's stewardship to the 
 friends who have so generously contributed to the 
 support of the Home during that period. 
 
 It was not without some hesitation and anxiety that 
 the charge was undertaken: because owing to the 
 continued illness of Mrs Gould, and the long interval 
 that elapsed between her death and the formation of 
 
 (*) The Schools in Rome which are now called by this name, 
 Tvere not founded by Mrs Gould nor are they in any wa.t 
 connected with the Gould Memorial Home and Schools .
 
 the Committee, the efficiency of the Institution had 
 become seriously impaired, and the funds had been for 
 some time completely exhausted. In fact the Committee, 
 in taking the Home became liable for debts due on the 
 14th February 1876, which amounted to 3,836 francs. 
 Some six hundred francs of this was on account of type 
 procured within the preceding six months: over seven 
 hundred francs was on account of money paid out of 
 pocket by Dr Gould while the Committee was being 
 formed; and the remainder was mostly due to the printer 
 whose books had not been balanced for some months. In 
 the course of the year this debt has been entirely cleared 
 off, all current expenses have been met, and there 
 remains in the Treasurer's hands a balance of 3,759 
 francs. At the same time the number of children in the 
 Home has been increased from fourteen to twenty-two. 
 This result has been attained not merely by the liberal- 
 ity of supporters, but by the strictest economy in all 
 expenditure. In proof of the economy in the administra- 
 tion of the funds, it is sufficient to state that though 
 twenty-four thousand francs passed through the hands 
 of the Secretary Mme. Gajani, and of the Treasurers 
 Messrs. Hooker, the whole of the office and banking 
 expenses amounted only to 119 francs. Service and 
 washing came to 405 francs. 
 
 From the accompanying abstract of accounts it will 
 be seen that the heaviest item of expenditure is for the
 
 lient of the house. Upon this important subject more 
 will be said presently. The Printing Office took 2,913 
 francs; but of this more than one third, or 1,042 francs 
 was laid out in the purchase of type and stands, so that 
 the actual working expenses for the whole year were 
 nearly covered by the money received for work done. 
 Clothing and Furniture came to some thousand francs. 
 Board for children, master, matron, and servants came 
 to 5,144 francs. The prices of provisions in Rome have 
 been steadily rising during the year, and thus the cost 
 per head is more now than it was at first. 
 
 As to the Receipts, contributions have been received 
 from various sources in the United States and in 
 England. One donation came from Hanover. But the 
 chief support has been due to the untiring exertions of 
 Dr Gould. Were it not for his efforts it would have been 
 necessary to close the Home last summer. In the 
 month of July when Rome was almost deserted by 
 foreigners , the few members of the Committee re- 
 maining in the City, felt it was a grave responsibility 
 to retain the charge of sixteen children, when but five 
 francs remained in the treasury; and they had a meeting 
 called to consider seriously the duty of breaking up the 
 Institution rather than incur the risk of getting into debt. 
 Signer Prochet, the President of theWaldensian Mission 
 Board, who was present at that meeting, urged the 
 exercise of the patience of faith so long as there was
 
 property to represent the liabilities; he felt assured that 
 God would provide for these children, some of whom, 
 but for the Home would be utterly destitute. In a few 
 days a considerable sum arrived from Dr. Gould, and 
 after this experience the Committee in all subsequent 
 difficulties, have been sustained by trust in the good- 
 ness and faithfulness of our Heavenly Father to over- 
 come all difficulties in the way of this work of charity. 
 The amount remitted by Dr. Gould during the year 
 amounted to 11,859 francs. Subscriptions from other 
 sources came to 7,532. The other items of receipt were 
 1,000 francs from the Waldensian Board, 611 francs 
 from children's payments, 1,558 francs for printing done 
 by the school press, and 375 francs from the proceeds of 
 a lecture kindly given in aid of the Home, in the 
 drawing-room of Mrs. Putnam, by the well-known ar- 
 chaeologist Mr. Shakspeare Wood. It should be observ- 
 ed that 1,010 francs, which are included in the gross 
 totals of the balance sheet, was only a temporary loan 
 advanced by a member of the Committee ta keep the 
 printing presses at work during the summer months, 
 and therefore the true total of money received should 
 be 23,133 francs. Deducting from this the 3,836 for 
 back debts, and the 3,759 francs for balance in hand, it 
 at once appears that the total amount spent upon the 
 Establishment was 15,538 francs or 7,595 francs less 
 than was received.
 
 The Committee ventures to hope that this financial 
 statement will prove satisfactory to the supporters of 
 the Home, and that it will command increased confi- 
 dence on the part of the public in the prudent manage- 
 ment of the funds contributed. 
 
 In their first circular at the beginning of their un- 
 dertaking they made an appeal stating that they esti- 
 mated that 20,000 francs would be required for the 
 then coming year. That sum has been more than sup- 
 plied to them, and care was taken to keep the expenses 
 well within it. They now again make an appeal to the 
 Christian public. The number of applications for ad- 
 mission to the Home is constantly increasing. At 
 present the appeals of six applicants are being consid- 
 ered, some of whom will be at once admitted; for the 
 Committee are anxious continually to extend the use- 
 fulness of the Home, and if possible to reject no deserv- 
 ing case : they still hope to give accommodation to 
 forty inmates even within the present house. The 
 Committee estimate the desirable expenses for the 
 coming year at thirty thousand francs. They appeal 
 for that sum, and for renewed confidence that the money 
 contributed will be wisely and economically laid out. 
 
 The sanitary condition of the Home has been on the 
 whole satisfactory. In speaking on this subject the 
 Committee wish to acknowledge their especial and 
 deepest obligations to Dr. Taussig of 113 Via Sistina,
 
 10 
 
 who has generously and assiduously attended the chil- 
 dren with no other recompense than that of perform- 
 ing a charitable work. One case, happily an isolated 
 one, of scarlatina occured last summer; the boy soon 
 recovered and is now strong and healthy. Some anxiety 
 is felt for two boys whose constitutions are very deli- 
 cate, and notwithstanding the care and attention that 
 has been paid it is feared that one of them cannot live 
 long. This is Beppino, whom Mrs. Gould brought from 
 a damp cellar and abject misery in Venice. lie had 
 been for nearly a year subject to bad fits of convulsions 
 and lately Dr. Taussig discovered that he had a danger- 
 ous tumour near the spine which required surgical 
 treatment. Mme. Gajani having heard that a friend of 
 hers, a Roman lady of noble family, maintained a bed in 
 the children's hospital, made application to her on be- 
 half of Beppino. She kindly at once consented to place 
 the bed at the disposal of Mme. Gajani and to pay 
 for the poor little suiferer in the hospital. He is con- 
 stantly visited there by some member of the Commit- 
 tee, or by Signer Garnieri the Director of the Home, 
 and it is a matter for gratitude to God that the tender 
 care token of this child and the teaching given to him 
 have not been without bearing fruit, in his really christ- 
 ian patience. He is fully aware of his danger but 
 always continues cheerful and contented with his lot. 
 It is one great disavantage of the present house
 
 11 
 
 occupied by the Home, that there is no garden or play- 
 ground attached to it : for the formal daily march of 
 the children through the streets of the city can never 
 be sufficient for the full development of their physical 
 powers. This want will in part be supplied in future 
 by one of the gymnasiums established by the Munici- 
 pality for the benefit of the municipal schools. On the 
 application of Mme. Gajani, the authorities have grant- 
 ed the privilege of entrance also to the children of the 
 Home, and arrangements have been made for their re- 
 gular instruction in gymnastic exercises at a moderate 
 monthly cost. 
 
 The children were treated by the Committee last 
 summer to an excursion by train to Frascati, where 
 they spent a very happy day. They have themselves 
 admirably described the excursions in letters written 
 in Italian, French, and English, and which were publish- 
 ed in the Educatore one of the newspapers printed 
 in i?he establishment. The English letter by Fiorenzo 
 shewed a very fair knowledge of the language. An 
 Italian letter by a girl of twelve was quite remarkable 
 for its easy and vivacious style. 
 
 The " Christmas tree " was the occasion of a merry 
 gathering of the children of the Home and Schools, in 
 all over one hundred. The tree was erected at the 
 Waldensian Church. The children marched in with 
 soldierly step and took their places around it. They then
 
 12 
 
 sang the Christmas hymn " Pace Pace in terra 
 " Peace on earth ". An American lady who was pie- 
 sent was so much pleased with the music that she got 
 a copy of it for her Sunday School in the United States. 
 The children sang several other hymns, and recited 
 chapters from the Old and New Testament. Afterwards 
 the gifts and premiums were taken from the tree and 
 distributed to the happy children. It should be men- 
 tioned that though the children in the Home and 
 Schools go through exactly the same course of instruct- 
 ion, the inmates of the Home invariably carry off the 
 larger proportion of prizes at any examination. 
 
 The Director of the Home is Signor Garnieri, the 
 respected and efficient Master of the Waldensian 
 Schools. He is ably assisted by his wife Signora Gar- 
 nieri whose kind and gentle care for the younger 
 children especially, is of the greatest possible advan- 
 tage for the happiness and harmony of the whole house- 
 hold. The Committee feel however as the number of 
 children increases that the assistance of an experienced 
 woman will be required whose time shall be devoted 
 exclusively to the service of the house and the care of 
 the girls out of school hours. Signora Garnieri cannot 
 be expected to accomplish all this by herself besi<lcs 
 attending to her own family and regulating the provi- 
 sioning and the general household work of the estab- 
 lishment. The Marquis Especo a member of the
 
 13 
 
 Committee continues to visit the Home and Schools 
 daily, arid to examine closely into all the wants and 
 requirements of the house. A subcommittee of ladies 
 is constant in the supervision of the children's ward- 
 robes and in seeing that all the rules for management 
 laid down by the Committee are attended to. The chil- 
 dren themselves do all the sweeping and cleaning of the 
 house, and the girls sew, knit and mend the clothes. 
 
 When the Committee took charge of the Home, part 
 of the Waldensian Day School attended in the build- 
 ing and received instruction along with the children 
 of the Home. Since last October all the Waldensian 
 schools numbering over one hundred children were 
 removed to the Gould building, and their day schools 
 were incorporated with the Gould Memorial Home and 
 Schools. For the accommodation thus given, the Walden- 
 sian Board pay the Committee two thousand francs a 
 year and supply all the teachers. The teaching is 
 thoroughly efficient; the same standard of proficiency 
 is required for the different classes, as in the Italian 
 Municipal Schools, but the children are taught in 
 addition French and English. The French lessons are 
 given by Signor Garnieri, and the English lessons are 
 given by two members of the Committee, Mrs. Ed ward es 
 and Signor Meille the assistant Waldensian pastor. 
 There is daily prayer in the Home and all the children 
 in the schools are regularly taught from God's Holy
 
 14 
 
 word. All the children of the Home and a large num- 
 ber of the day scholars attend the Waldensian Sunday- 
 School- And it is a matter for gratitude to God that 
 there is a manifest growth of Christian principle and 
 moral tone observable among them. 
 
 The printing press gives the means of instruction in 
 the composing of type to the boys. One weekly 
 religious newspaper the Cristiano Evangelico and one 
 monthly paper the Educatore with other occasional 
 work, keeps them fully occupied, and during the latter 
 months has yielded a profit to the benefit of the 
 Home. Through the kindness of a friend a supply of 
 Hebrew type has been presented, in the use of which 
 the boys will be instructed. 
 
 The Committee have thus laid before the subscribers 
 a brief statement of what has been done within the 
 year. Twenty two children are in the Home, over one 
 hundred in the Schools. Debts have disappeared, a 
 balance remains in hand, and the printing press begins 
 to pay its expenses. If the heavy rent paid for the 
 house be borne in mind, all this has been effected at a 
 small cost. 
 
 Much has yet to be done before anything like per- 
 fection is attained but it can be attained only by slow 
 degrees and by patience; however it can at least be 
 said that a step has been taken in the right direction. 
 
 The Committee beg in conclusion to state that with
 
 15 
 
 a view to the steady growth of the Gould Memorial 
 Home and Schools it will be absolutely necessary to 
 make provision beforehand for securing increased ac- 
 commodation as soon as the lease for the present house 
 expires, which will be next November. It is exceeding- 
 ly desirable therefore that an effort should be made 
 in order to raise a sufficient sum for the purchase of a 
 suitable building with play grounds attached. If there 
 be in the new building sufficient room for the develop- 
 ment of the printing establishment there is no reason 
 why eventually it should not largely supply the means 
 for supporting the whole establishment. Probably an 
 eligible place could be bought for a hundred thousand 
 francs, equal to twenty thousand dollars, or four 
 thousand pounds. Arrangements could be made if ne- 
 cessary for paying this off by yearly instalments, though 
 if possible it would be better and cheaper to pay it all 
 in one sum. A friend in Scotland has promised to 
 do what he can in order to help the Committee in their 
 special appeal for this matter, and they trust that God 
 may put it in the hearts of those who are blessed with 
 the means to do what they can for the purpose of put- 
 ting this institution in a position to carry on its work 
 as a thoroughly effective agency for Christian and indus- 
 trial education in Rome. No pains will be spared by 
 the Committee in order to make it so.
