The Happy Adventurers

Lydia Miller Middleton was the author of: The Making of Michael (1920), Their London Cousins (1921) and The Happy Adventurers (1922). "Mollie did not say anything. She had smiled the Guides' smile valiantly through the worst of her misfortunes, but now she was so tired that she felt nothing short of a hammer and two tacks could fasten that smile on to her face any longer. So she closed her eyes and lay back on the cushions, feeling that Fate had done its worst and that no more blows were possible in the immediate future. "
