albert's-uncle

Updated: May 5, 2025

I don't think they'll ever be again the victims of the Murdstone aunt who is really a great-aunt and about twice as much in the autumn of her days as our new Albert's-uncle aunt. I think they plucked up spirit enough to tell their father they didn't like her which they'd never thought of doing before. Our own robber says their holidays in the country did them both a great deal of good.
