Excerpt from Recollections of a Chaperon, Vol. 1 of 2
I was left a widow with seven daughters. I have married them all, or rather, I have let them marry them selves; for I never took any active measures towards bringing about a result which I own to be a desirable one in a family consisting of seven daughters and one son.
