Beeton's biographer, Kathryn Hughes, opines that Benjamin, "a vicar's son... though not quite a gentleman, was established in a gentlemanly line of business". [1] During the particularly bitter winter of 1858–59 Beeton prepared her own soup that she served to the poor of Pinner, "Soup for benevolent purposes"; [f] her sister later recalled that Beeton "was busy making [the] soup for the poor, and the children used to call with their cans regularly to be refilled". [46] [47] The recipe would become the only entry in her Book of Household Management that was her own. [48] After two years of miscarriages, the couple's second son was born in June 1859; he was also named Samuel Orchart Beeton. [g] Hughes sees the miscarriages as further evidence of Samuel's syphilis. [50]a b "Isabella Beeton". Orion Publishing Group. Archived from the original on 8 December 2015 .
