What looked to have been a once well-tended flower garden now stood overgrown in a tangle of dead weeds. Wiry strands of persistent grass peeked through the cobblestones of the walkway leading to the door of the house. All the shutters were pulled, even though it was midday, and Elspeth was seized by a sudden fear of entering what she knew would be a dark and depressing house still in deep mourning for its lost lady.But must it be like that? Elspeth was not only a practical girl, but an optimis...tic and instantly conjured an image of infusing comfort into her charges that would bring forth positive change. But she knew as soon as she stepped inside the house that this would be no small accomplishment.A stern-looking birdlike woman stood in the foyer. In front of her stood two well-scrubbed, unsmiling boys that she guessed to be about three and four years of age. They were their father in miniature, except for their dark, almost feminine eyes. Beautiful eyes, Elspeth noted, but absent of the carefree spark one expects in little boys.“Mrs.MoreLess
