The narrative of "The Old Nurse's Story" by Elizabeth Gaskell is told in first person. First person narrative is an asset to this story since the dialect of the speaker adds to the mystery in a classic ghost story.

"The Old Nurse's Story" was written by British novelist Elizabeth Gaskell.

Hester, now an old nurse, is telling children a story of their mother, Miss Rosamond when she was a child.

Hester and Miss Rosamond decide to stay at an estate owned by her employer (or something like that...it's difficult to follow the story, at times). Eventually, Miss Rosamond, a precocious child, begins to hear strange noises. When her life is threatened, Hester eventually demands to hear the grisly history of the former inhabitants of the estate.

How old were som of the nurses in World War 2?

The average age of the nurses was 22. Though there were many who went to war right out of college at age 20 the majority of the nurses were surgical nurses, hospital nurses and trauma nurses. They had experience so they were not real young. Some of the older nurses were 40 years old. They served as supervisors and Head Nurses and had high up ranks. This was true in all the allied forces. I don't know about the Germans and Japanese.

What is the difference between the Christian creation story and the Muslim creation story?

The Quran differs from the Old Testament in that it does not attempt to be a narrative, in the way that the Old Testament does. Rather, it contains a series of affirmations of the same creation story. Islam arose in southern Arabia at a time when Judaism and Christianity were both beginning to make inroads into the ancient pagan beliefs, and arguably the Islamic creation story is simply based on the biblical stories.
