Bessie Costrell
Publisher Description
This is a painful but very powerful story, which is as like a bit of actual life as, in its very different field, a painting by Rembrandt of the interior of a Dutch cottage. The story of Bessie Costrell is the story of a foolish man's hoard and how it is wasted directly the foolish man loses the sister-in-law whose hard sense kept him out of blunders.
