Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Maternity of Harriott Wicken
I told that girl to keep the mid-sussex out of the way, Mrs. Gatley was saying wrathfully. It don't do you no good to read things like that jest now. I can't read nor write myself, and I don't know as I misses much.
She took the paper from the limp hand of the other woman. This woman was young, and in favourable circumstances might have passed for good-looking; just now, circumstances were against her.
