The Serpent's Tooth (Classic Reprint)
Excerpt from The Serpent's Tooth
As a child, Letty had promised to be rather pretty, and Mrs. Fenchurch believed that With her own social advantages, she would marry her off ere long; but before arriving at this happy period, she resolved to make the poor relation useful in the house. She should dust china, arrange flowers, pour out tea, help in the garden, and take over the Mothers' Sewing Club. Her own hands were more than full both at home and abroad (indeed, the influence of Mrs. Fenchurch now radiated far and wide), she Was secretary here, treas urer and chairwoman there, and was often sorely pressed for time. Oh yes, Letty would have her uses but all the same a girl in the house - a girl, who was always en evidence, to whom one must be a sort of model and sheep dog, would undoubtedly be an intolerable nuisance.
