"Anecdotes & Incidents of the Deaf and Dumb" by W. R. Roe is a collection of narratives and observations related to the experiences of individuals who are deaf and mute, written in the late 19th century. The work focuses on highlighting the struggles, achievements, and unique situations of the deaf and dumb community, especially within the context of education and personal development. It appears to aim at raising awareness and generating support for institutions that educate and assist these individuals. At the start of the book, Roe provides a preface that poignantly captures the plight of deaf and dumb children, presenting them as isolated from the world and in need of education to lead fulfilling lives. Subsequent anecdotes include heartwarming stories of young boys and girls adjusting to life in a Deaf and Dumb Institution, the bravery exhibited by a deaf-mute girl in rescuing her father from an aggressive bull, and accounts of deaf and dumb individuals positively influencing their communities. The opening sets a tone of compassion and advocacy, illustrating both the challenges faced by these individuals and their remarkable capabilities when provided with appropriate support and community.
