We have a LOT to unpack in today's chapter! We meet Moore's self-important sister, Hortense who venerates her brother but hates the local villagers. To be fair, they laughed in her face when my good sis rocked up to church in her finest wooden clogs. But in between the family talk, we see that Robert engages in the practice of the day of hiring literal CHILDREN in his mill and also is maybe hitting on a child, 17 year old Caroline Helstone. 😬

Tamra Can you imagine breaking those in? 😅 4d

Andrea313 @Tamra It would be such hell! 4d
Andrea313 @BarkingMadRead Right?? Anyone coming to the function in those has my total admiration. 4d
eeclayton Well, agewise it's similar to the Marianne/Brandon situation. 4d
Andrea313 @eeclayton Definitely! And of course not generally uncommon at the time. Let's hope Moore wears a flannel waistcoat and turns Caroline right off! 4d
