It was a common practice for the girls leaving Ackworth School to make parting gifts for friends and instructors. This sampler was most likely created for this purpose as the inscription reads \"A Token of Love\".\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Pollard family came from Horsham in Surrey. Martha and her three brothers attended Ackworth between 1801 and 1815. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMany of the Ackworth samplers were worked in a very fine cross stitch, however Martha worked hers on much coarser linen.
