Recollections of a Southern Matron (Classic Reprint) Synopsis

Excerpt from Recollections of a Southern Matron

Jacque had been intrusted with the entire control of his young master's household during the term of his education in Europe and while the confidence placed in him had somewhat increased his self-conceit, it never induced him to take a liberty beyond those which his peculiar situation authorized. Rose land, from the beauty of its location and its valuable paintings, was frequently visited by strangers in the absence of its orphan proprietor, and it is a singular fact that Jacque was never known to ascend the hall stairs on such occasions. He pointed out the way with a bow and ?ourish of profound respect, and met the guests by a private stairway after they had ascended.
