My guess would be that they threw Flopsey out for smoking, rather than
beating, the hemp.

Nope, ain't never been to this house!!!

Flopsey
(sneaking time on Dana's computer again)


Word of the Day, April 8
Spinning-house
An English house of correction so-called because women of loose
character had to spin or beat hemp there as a punishment.

Is this the true identity of Flopsey's abode for the past 7 years??
