Description
Charlotte M. Yonge's Three Brides appears a second time in this record, opening with the same first chapter, The Model and Her Copies, as its sibling copy. A mother banters with her two unmarried sons about three daughters-in-law arriving at once, each bride supposedly her likeness and each son claiming he married for her sake. She counts trains and carriage times for Raymond and Cecil, Julius and Rosamond, and Miles's wife coming alone to Backsworth.
Because both records print the identical opening, readers should treat them as duplicate copies of Yonge's 1876 domestic novel, not two works. The charm is the same in either: quick family dialogue and a capable mother. Her house prepares to receive three brides on one busy day, with church bells and borrowed carriages to arrange.
