Excerpt from Susannah: A Novel

Unfortunately for her, Susan is not in a position to say 'she will' or 'she won't,' any more than the rest Of you. In the present unpleasant state of affairs, being beggars, you can't be choosers, and you must all accept what comes in your way, and be thankful.

Thus the Rev. Thomas Upwell in consultation with his newly orphaned and penniless nieces, Theresa and Emeline. He stood by the window, to which he had irritably strayed while speaking, and he read through for the second time the letter he held in his hand. The handsome girls in their handsome mourning sat at the end Of the empty dining-table, and looked drearily into each other's faces.
