Explore "Patty At Home" by Carolyn Wells on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Patty's plans for systematic housekeeping included a number of small / Russia-leather account books, and she looked forward with some eagerness / to the time when the first month's bills should come in, and she could / present to her father a neat and accurate statement of the household / expenses for the month.
The 1st of February was Sunday, but on Monday morning the postman brought / a sheaf of letters which were evidently bills.
