Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Littell's Living Age, Vol. 69: April, May, June, 1861
She rose, except when she was unwell, at six o'clock. After dressing she prayed aloud or in thought; and when she was in a town, she never missed going to hear Mass at the nearest altar At Cayla, after her prayers, she went into her father's room, either to attend to him or to give him his breakfast, during which she read to him. At nine o'clock she came back into her own room, and repeated the prayers of the Mass. If her father was well and did not want her attendance, she employed herself in writing or reading, or in working, of which she was very fond, having the same fairy-like quick ness of finger as of mind; or perhaps she looked over household matters, which she managed with great taste and good sense.
