The Chatelaine

There is little doubt that the obsequious voters of Tapperbridge will ratify the Duke of Mulcaster’s choice and elect Josiah Ferraby a Member of Parliament, but the formalities must be observed in proper order. This new departure for the Ferrabys will bring about great changes in their lives. A move to Town; Eliza taking charge of the oversight of domestic affairs of Raxdell House when they go to reside in the East Wing; making new acquaintance and finding that relationships with old friends and family are changing. But they still have the love and contrivances of their treasured third, Clorinda, Dowager Marchioness of Bexbury, becoming ever more one of the family.
