The Younger Miss Wetherell Monologue from Fanny and the Servant Problem

From Fanny and the Servant Problem by Jerome K. (Jerome Klapka) Jerome

female · melancholic · 57 sec

He was so fond of us both. Do you remember when he was recovering from the measles, his crying for us to bath him instead of Mrs. Bennet? I have always reproached myself that we refused. (THE ELDER MISS WETHERELL: He was such a big boy for his age.) I think we might have stretched a point in a case of illness. The room has grown very dark. The door has been softly opened; Vernon and Fanny have entered noiselessly. Fanny remains near the door hidden by a screen, Vernon has crept forward. At this point the two ladies become aware that somebody is in the room. They are alarmed.
