Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Vicar's Courtship, Vol. 1 of 3 Mrs. Beauflower, the mother of the young vicar, was a meek, placid old lady of about seventy, with good features, from which age had not altogether removed the beauty. An old-fashioned cap, with a pleated border and Quakerly lavender satin ribbons, Shut in a face not altogether unlike that of Hannah More, though the benevolence was here retained some what at the expense of the intellect. A thrifty housekeeper, accustomed all her life to severe and necessary economy (for her husband had been a worthy, good-natured man of expensive and luxurious tastes, and not much money), old Mrs. Beauflower had grown in old age into one of those well-intentioned persecutors of servants, those worshippers of cleanliness and exhorters to saving.
