"Little Folks" by Various is a collection of stories and articles aimed at young readers, likely written in the late 19th century. The book features a variety of narratives, including adventures of children facing challenges and moral dilemmas. Notable characters include Elsie and Duncan, who find themselves in a perilous situation after running away from a woman's cottage where they feel trapped and fearful for their safety. The opening of "Little Folks" introduces readers to the plight of Elsie and her younger brother, Duncan, who awaken after a troubled night at a crofter's cottage. With their clothes missing and breakfast scant, they are reluctantly ordered to work for Mrs. Ferguson, who seems to have no intention of letting them leave. As they labor alongside Mrs. Ferguson's children, both Elsie and Duncan are filled with apprehension about their fate, leading to a daring escape attempt. Their adventure takes a turn when they encounter a kind lady in a carriage who promises to assist them, but leaves them bewildered about who they can trust as they navigate their way through a complex and sometimes frightening world.
