Super Sudoku works on
the same logic as a regular
sudoku puzzle, but you need
to place the numbers 0–9 inclusive, as
well as the letters A–F into each line,
row and 4-by-4 box. Good luck!

We crowded round, and
over Miss Cathy’s head
I had a peep at a dirty,
ragged, black-haired
child; big enough both
to walk and talk: indeed,
its face looked older than
Catherine’s; yet when
it was set on its feet, it
only stared round, and
repeated over and over
again some gibberish that
nobody could understand.
I was frightened, and Mrs
Earnshaw was ready to
fling it out of doors: she
did fly up, asking how he
could fashion to bring that
gipsy brat into the house,
when they had their own
bairns to feed and fend for?
What he meant to do with
it, and whether he were
mad? The master tried to
explain the matter; but
he was really half dead
with fatigue, and all that I
could make out, amongst
her scolding, was a tale of
his seeing it starving, and
houseless, and as good
as dumb, in the streets of
Liverpool, where he picked
it up and inquired for its
owner. Not a soul knew
to whom it belonged, he
said; and his money and

time being both limited,
he thought it better to
take it home with him at
once, than run into vain
expenses there: because he
was determined he would
not leave it as he found
it. Well, the conclusion
was, that my mistress
grumbled herself calm;
and Mr Earnshaw told
me to wash it, and give
it clean things, and let it
sleep with the children.
Hindley and Cathy
contented themselves with
looking and listening till
peace was restored: then,
both began searching their
father’s pockets for the
presents he had promised
them. The former was a
boy of fourteen, but when
he drew out what had
been a fiddle, crushed
to morsels in the great
coat, he blubbered aloud;
and Cathy, when she
learned the master had
lost her whip in attending
on the stranger, showed
her humour by grinning
and spitting at the stupid
little thing; earning for
her pains a sound blow
from her father, to teach
her cleaner manners.
