Excerpt from Esther's Charge: A Story for Girls
"Where is Miss Esther, Genefer?"
"I think she's at the linen-press, marm, putting away the things from the wash."
"Tell her to come to me when she has clone that. I want to speak to her."
"Yes, marm, I will. Can I do anything else for you?"
"No, thank you. I have all I want. But send Miss Esther to me quickly."
Mrs. St. Aiden was lying on a couch in a very pretty, dainty, little room, which opened upon a garden, blazing with late spring and early summer flowers.
