Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Downrenter's Son
Both girls eagerly assented to the plan. They performed together the office known as doing the dinner dishes. Then leaving Mrs. Mix dozing over her fire, Mary Ann with an important air led the way from the kitchen. Let 's go in the parlor a while, said she. We can see the passing from there. It 's pleasanter.
Their path lay through a dining-room sombre in dull blue paint, its black chairs set against the wall except for a Boston rocker drawn up by the Franklin stove. A rag carpet covered the ?oor. Everything was in perfect order.
