Bess and Cora of Spitalfields

Bess and Cora are unnamed when they first appear in Volume Two, Chapter Thirty-two of "Inner Magnets". They are merely the Spitalfields girls whose mother Ambrose is trying to help out of crippling poverty.

The girls reappear in Volume Three, "Living Timekeepers" as adults. Although their role is small, their impact on Ambrose's life is huge.
