Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Who takes Jacky to the Lawson Peabody School for Girls?

Answer: Professor Tilden

Since Tilden is Mistress Pimm's cousin, which is part of the reason Jacky is admitted to the school, he is the one to take her to meet her new headmistress.

2. Along the way to the school, Jacky sees a "huge stone building with grand entrances" and asks what it is. To what building, according to her companion, is Jacky referring?

Answer: The Massachusetts State House

Tilly, being a professor after all, knows exactly what it is, and he comments that the dome was not yet finished when last he came by this way.

3. Where is Amy's farm located?

Answer: Quincy

The Trevelyne family's farm, Dovecote, is located "To the south [of Boston]. About fifteen miles."

4. Which of the serving girls does Clarissa hit because her dress wasn't brushed and ironed by the time Equestrian class ended?

Answer: Sylvie

Jacky thinks a hard smack on the face is too much of a punishment for not doing something in time and she reprimands Clarissa for it. When Clarissa insults her, Jacky beats her up good, and gets herself no dinner or supper for that day. Later she finds a package under her pillow with food in it.

5. Jacky delivers her second letter to Jaimy through an officer on a British warship. Is the ship the officer is on the Endeavor?

Answer: No

Jacky has trouble leaving the Shannon because it reminds her of the Dolphin so much. Her throat tightens and her eyes mist up, but she leaves before she makes a fool of herself.

6. What does Mam'selle's perfume smell like?

Answer: Tropical flowers

Mam'selle is brought to the jail where Jacky is brought after her "Lewd and Lascivious Conduct" incident and is placed in the same cell. This is when Jacky smells her perfume.

7. What does Judge Thwackham first say when he discovers that Jacky is one of "Pimm's girls"?

Answer: "Oh, my joy."

Judge Thwackham (and most of the other people in the room) are thrilled to finally have one of Pimm's girls in the courtroom. "And on a charge for Lewd and Lascivious Conduct yet!"

8. When Jacky serves her first dinner as a serving girl, what goes down her shoe?

Answer: Gravy

Clarissa "prefers things on *that* platter," being the one Jacky is holding instead of the one Betsey has, and when she takes a piece of meat she drops it on Jacky's foot. Jacky watches as the gravy slides down into her shoe.

9. Annie and Betsey Byrnes have an elder brother. What is his name?

Answer: Timothy

Jacky says Timothy "seems right pleased" that she came, and they hold hands in front of the fire. When it's time for bed Jacky gives him a peck on the cheek, but I think that's as far as this courtship goes.

10. On the inside of the Lady Lenore, the first two letters of the craftsman's name can be seen. What two letters are these?

Answer: An S and a T

"Look," Gully says to Jacky, "it says here it was made by some I-tal-ian whose name starts with an S. See it? And it was made in a place called Cremona."

11. What is the Trevelyne family's farm named?

Answer: Dovecote

When they ride up Jacky asks if Dovecote is the name of the village Amy's farm is in, but Amy says no, that it's the name of their farm. Jacky has never heard of such a thing.

12. What two colors are Millie's markings?

Answer: Black and white

When Millie first finds them in the fields, Jacky asks, "What is it? What does it want?" because she is rather terrified of dogs. Once Millie (and Amy) shows that she will not hurt her, Jacky warms up to Millie a lot.

13. If petticoats are SHIFTS and bellies are ABDOMENS, what is the proper word for legs?

Answer: Limbs

"It's not so much that you are crude," Amy says, Aas it is that you are...impulsive...simple...straightforward...and maybe a bit too plainspoken and direct for our society. In a charming way, of course." Then Amy proceeds to teach Jacky the proper words for body parts and delicate clothing items.

14. What does Jacky use for false hair when she haunts Reverend Mather?

Answer: Strings from a mop

Jacky wants to look as much like Janey Porter's ghost as possible, so she makes a wig out of an old mop that she bleaches white and cuts it straight across at the bangs in the Dutch fashion. Then she whitens her face with flour and blackens her teeth with soot.

15. Who does Jacky see at Clarissa's table during the tea?

Answer: Randall

Randall says, "It is good to see you again, Jacky" when she serves their table, making Clarissa furious.
