The Cook’s Daughter

Can a kitchen maid find true happiness?

Miss Caroline Bates began working in the kitchen with her mother when she was twelve. Caroline grew up with the children of Wellsbury Hall, and watched Lord Gretner’s eldest son, Alfred court several noblewomen until one day he finds Caroline practically naked in a nearby moor river.

Is Caroline ruined for all eternity or does she use this mischance to her advantage?
