1. Before Miss
Sullivan's advent in her life, Helen was living a frustrated life; she had so
many ideas in her mind that she wanted to express; she had so many unanswered
questions; apart from these, she had a faint recollection of days before she
fell ill and became disabled. She felt living in the darkness and incessant
silence. Her inability to see, hear and speak often were the cause of her
tantrums. She compares that helpless state to a ship caught in the dense fog.
However, Miss Sullivan's arrival brought joy, hope and uncountable blessings
for Helen.
2. Martha Washington was a little coloured girl. She was the daughter of a cook who worked for the Keller family. Martha proved to be Helen's childhood companion. She understood Helen's signs and would do just as Helen wished her to do. Helen would usually take delight dominating her in child's play. Both of them would spend a great time int the kitchen. They would knead dough balls, help in making ice-cream, grind coffee, and sometimes quarrel over cake-bowl. Feeding the hens and turkeys were their favourite pastime. Sometimes they would indulge in mischief too. Once Helen cut Martha's hair. Martha was a wonderful companion in Helen's early childhood.
3. During her stay at the Perkins Institution for the Blind, Helen made friends with many little blind children. She was delighted to know that they knew the manual alphabet. Helen felt very comfortable and at home among them. Helen felt pain and surprise as she noticed they placed their hands over hers when she talked to them and that they read books with their fingers. In spite of their deprivations, they were so happy and contented. Helen forgot all sense of pain in the pleasure of their companionship.
4. Helen had very happy memories about her stay at her summer cottage, on a mountain about fourteen miles from Tuscumbia. It was called Fern Quarry. The natural beauty around it was very abundant and beautiful. Many visitors came to Fern Quarry. In the evening, by the campfire, the men played cards and had fun. At dawn she was awakened by the smell of coffee, the rattling of guns, and the footsteps of men as they strode away to hunt. In the evening they had a barbecue. Thus the festivities at Fern Quarry never ended.
