 * __Pages 1-19__

Jane Eyre is a ten-year-old child who was taken in by her Uncle, Mr. Reed. Nine years ago he passed away in the Red Room/Chamber. She was treated as if she were less than a servant. Mrs. Reed was blind and deaf to the abuse John Reed does to Jane. John is violent and beats upon Jane regularly. He feels that she doesn’t belong in the same house as him since she has nothing. Everything seems to be Jane’s fault. Mrs. Reed sees the attack to be Jane’s fault and sends her to the Red Room. Miss Abbot and Bessie hold her down in fear she is a crazy child. While locked in this chamber she wonders why she is always suffering. She began to think of herself as wicked and considered starving herself to death. Jane saw a lantern and got scared; she thought she was seeing the ghost of Mr. Reed. Abbot and Bessie came to her only for Mrs. Reed to throw her back into the Red Room. She woke up in the beginning of chapter three in the nursery, ill. Mr. Lloyd, an apothecary, was helping her back to health. Mr. Lloyd actually took the time to listen to Jane’s answer to why she was still crying and so miserable. He asks if she wishes to find her Father’s family, the Eyre’s. She doesn’t wish to because Mrs. Reed told her that they are poor and Jane feels that she couldn’t not see how “poor people had the means of being kind” so she wished not to find them. Although, Jane does wish to go to school, Mr. Lloyd now talks with Mrs. Reed. ||  ||   These pages take place within the Reed household.
