Jenny is the teenage daughter of landlady Mary, living in the same house as Karl. She has skin as smooth as milk and a clear, melodious voice. She is innocent and kind, often practicing singing in hopes of joining the Barrow Singing Troupe. She shows concern for Karl after his father’s death and the title issue, and she briefly entertains his uncle Giles. She speaks softly and is apologetic when corrected by her mother. She serves Karl breakfast and later asks if he is all right, demonstrating her caring nature.
