without thought for other than herself Her adored and adoring son carouser enjoying the only approval hls mother gave anyone was almost caught in the quickwhich sands drew the family to Its doom Lucy the hated orphan niece was barely tolerated and in her early twenties brought what Kate chose to call disgrace upon the family Silas Atwood the meek slave-lik- e husband was driven to thieving from his employer to bootto death legging and ultimately through the constant monetary demands who the Kate of owed proscheming digious amounts to every tradesman A charming social secretary Helen
