Synopsis
A novel by MILDRED MASTIN PACE author of clara barton, juliette low, etc. This is the story of Brady Allen and of how she found a home and romance with the bewildering, lovable Marstons. When Brady's father left the mountain and went off to look for work, he left Brady to live with the Marstons in their rambling farm called The Houses. And to Brady, coming from a small cabin, it seemed that perhaps she would never belong to this strange, wonderful household. She could scarcely accustom herself to mornings in the family classroom, to sitting at the long kitchen table piled with good food, to sharing with Sally the deep feather bed under the eaves. Secretly she feared that when Judge Marston returned from his circuit, he might not even want her. But Brady had a loving heart, and with each day she became more a part of The Houses. It was Brady who delighted little Fernie's heart at Christmas. It was Brady who sat long hours spinning with Granny. It was Brady who kept the secret that made it possible for Miss Nell to run off and marry Trink. And it was to Brady that Bob turned when he needed help in hiding the out- lander, the railroad man whom Sally loved, but whom the Judge forbade The Houses. Because of Bob especially, Brady knew she would always be a part of the Marston family, that the motto she had worked on a sampler is true: "Home Is Where the Heart Is." MILDRED MASTIN PACE is well known as the author of such successful biographies as juliette low; clara barton; early american: the story of paul revere; and friend of animals: the story of henry bergh. Her first novel for young people is a warm and memorable story which will make her audience larger than ever.
