'Today was my first day at the Kellers estate. Already I have made great acquaintance with my new student Hellen. The pore soul, both blind, deaf, and mute, she has hardly anything to do but cause trouble and tie up her mother from her work. I feel that this is a great mission for me, for It will humble me and teach me patience as I sit in this locked room for which Hellen has confined me to. Also, I have found Hellens parents the most arguable. We had fallen under the subject of the great Civil War, and the idea of slavery. It horrifies me to know that the Kellers themselves have not only have followed to the trade of slavery, but owned a bunch slaves for their own estate. I do hope, that this topic does not come up again.'
I would say that such a cruise ship would be an example of a supplier since on shore excursions presumably would be organized by the ship strictly for the ship passengers so this means the ship personnel would be the chief suppliers of this service.
