Excerpt from Margaret Craven: Or, Beauty of the Heart
Such was the home of Mrs. Shirley and her little niece, Margaret Craven. Here it was that Margaret's life had been spent ever since she could remember; for, though not an orphan, she had never known her parents. They had left England for India when She was very young, leaving her under the care of Mrs. Shirley, who was a widowed sister of Mr. Craven's. They did not then expect that their absence would exceed two or three years, but,.fron1 one cause or other, it had been so much extended, that Margaret; though she often talked of them, had from being repeatedly told that they were coming, and being then disappointed, at length almost ceased to expect that she should ever have any other home than the Thatched Cottage.
