Helen of the Old House by Harold Bell Wright Pdf

This is a story of love, friendship, and class conflict, set in early 20th century America. A group of children from two families play in the yard and grow together as the financial gap between their parents grows. As one family gets richer and moves to the mansion, the ties between the children fade. Finally, they reunite in adulthood, and the classic opposition between the rich and the poor arises. As a boy from the rich house falls in love with the girl from the workman's house and his sister falls in love with the boy from the workmen's house, the conflict between the two families is set afire. Next, there is a strike, a murder, an explosion, and many more.

Helen of the Old House (Classic Reprint) by Harold Bell Wright Pdf

Excerpt from Helen of the Old House But it has come to pass that in these days when the people speak of Adam Ward they do not smile. When they speak of Adam Wards daughter, Helen, they smile, indeed, but with quite a different meaning. The history of Millsburgh is not essentially different from that of a thousand other cities of its class. Born of the natural resources of the hills and forests, the first rude mill was located on that wide sweeping bend of the river. About this industrial beginning a settlement gathered. As the farm lands of the valley were developed, the railroad came, bringing more mills. And so the town grew up around its smoky heart. It was in those earlier days that Adam Ward, a workman then, patented and introduced the new process. It was the new process, together with its owners native genius for "getting on" that, in time, made Adam the owner of the Mill. And, finally, it was this combination of Adam and the new process that gave this one mill dominion over all others. As the Mill increased hi size, importance and power, and the town grew into the city, Adam Wards material possessions were multiplied many times. Then came the year of this story. It was midsummer.

Helen of the Old House by Harold Bell Wright Pdf

No well informed resident of Millsburgh, when referring to the principal industry of his little manufacturing city, ever says "the mills"-it is always "the Mill." The reason for this common habit of mind is that one mill so overshadows all others, and so dominates the industrial and civic life of this community, that in the people's thought it stands for all. The philosopher who keeps the cigar stand on the corner of Congress Street and Ward Avenue explained it very clearly when he answered an inquiring stranger, "You just can't think Millsburgh without thinkin' mills; an' you can't think mills without thinkin' the Mill." As he turned from the cash register to throw his customer's change on the scratched top of the glass show case, the philosopher added with a grin that was a curious blend of admiration, contempt and envy, "An' you just can't think the Mill without thinkin' Adam Ward." That grin was another distinguishing mark of the well informed resident of Millsburgh. Always, in those days, when the citizens mentioned the owner of the Mill, their faces took on that curious half-laughing expression of mingled admiration, contempt and envy. But it has come to pass that in these days when the people speak of Adam Ward they do not smile. When they speak of Adam Ward's daughter, Helen, they smile, indeed, but with quite a different meaning.

Helen of the Old House by Harold Bel Wright Pdf

Millsburgh was aptly named - The Mill at the heart of the manufacturing center was also at the smokey heart of the town. And residents couldn't think of The Mill without thinking about wealthy Adam Ward, the rich man who ran the mill, or of his daughter: Helen. They smiled when they heard her name, but not in a gracious way. Not in a proud way. But rather in a queer way that indicated they'd better be heading on home, as such matters didn't concern them.
