Daughter of the Loom (Bells of Lowell book #1)
“It was hardly warm enough for the winter, but her choices were few, and this was one of the last of her gowns acceptable to wear to Sunday services.
While doing up the buttons, she silently chastised herself for agreeing to accompany Miss Addie to St. Anne’s for Sunday services. The ritual at the Episcopal church made her uncomfortable, for she hadn’t attended often enough to learn the order of service. She much preferred attending the Methodist church with Nadene, where she knew exactly wh...at to expect. But Miss Addie had asked if she would attend St. Anne’s with her during the Advent season. The older woman said it would be her Christmas gift from Lilly since she disliked attending services alone. Lilly had hastened to point out that Mr. Farnsworth and Miss Mintie both attended St. Anne’s, but Miss Addie had quickly retorted that it was Lilly’s presence she desired.
Addie was waiting at the foot of the stairs in her fur-trimmed coat, a relic of the prosperous days when she, Mintie, and the Judge had resided among Boston society.MoreLess
