Beth Woodburn

Beth Woodburn is a romantic novel by Maud Petitt. In the narrative, Beth-the doctor's only child-enjoys the Y.W.C.A.'s welcome to the freshettes despite being a newcomer to the world. The town of Briarsfield, which is near the Lake Erie shore, serves as the setting for the book. The doctor's only daughter, Beth, was relaxing beneath a birch tree one beautiful June afternoon with a less-than-elegant attitude. The entire home consisted of her, her father, and Mrs. Margin, the housekeeper, also referred to as Aunt Prudence. Beth had a slight height advantage, a girlish build, and a hint of the clumsiness that occasionally characterises an immature eighteen-year-old; her face, while not particularly attractive, yet had some attractiveness. Her features could have been a bit too defined, but the brow was as fair as a lily, and the large volume of dark hair was nicely drawn back from it.
