Elizabeth continued staring at her, examining Abigail from head to toe.
“Your daughter, you say? Where is she now? And where is your husband?”

Edward, Christina, and Abigail followed quietly behind them. “Abigail also works with Mrs. Maddock at the fabric shop. And her cookies are incredibly popular around here.”
