Excerpt from The Padre's Little Caretaker a Romance of the Carmel Mission
She played her part so well that on the following day her mother entrusted her with the keys. For a time the woman and child shared the office, but the child brought more dimes to the family exchequer than did the woman, and gradually the full responsibility fell on the little girl's shoulders - no heavy burden, however, even for a child of ten.

Excerpt from The Padre's Little Caretaker a Romance of the Carmel Mission
Her name was Carmelita, as had been her mother's and grandmother's before her. It could hardly have been otherwise, for, like them, she had first seen the light of day in the little cottage under the pear trees which Padre Junipero Serra, of blessed memory, had planted with his own hand, at Carmel - his favorite mission. For generations her mother's family had handed down from daughter to daughter the office of caretaker of the church and its holy relics. And Carmelita had always known that one day her turn would come. She would marry, of course, when old enough; but marriage had never interfered with this sacred office - nor with much else in the Carmel valley. Pedro, Carmelita's father, had herded cattle in the adjacent meadows, and fished in the bay of Carmelo.
