The Yates Pride is a novel written by Mary E. Wilkins Freeman. The story revolves around the Yates family, who are wealthy and influential members of their small New England town. The family is headed by the patriarch, Mr. Yates, who is a strict and traditional man. He has two daughters, Eudora and Maria, who are both unmarried and in their thirties.The novel follows the lives of the Yates sisters as they navigate their way through the expectations of their father and the society they live in. Eudora is the more practical and level-headed of the two sisters, while Maria is more flighty and romantic. Both sisters are determined to marry for love, but their father has other plans for them.The plot thickens when a new family moves into town, the Burnhams, who are also wealthy and influential. The Burnham son, James, takes an interest in Eudora, but she is hesitant to pursue a relationship because of her father's disapproval. Maria, on the other hand, falls head over heels in love with James' brother, Robert.As the story unfolds, the sisters must navigate their own desires and the expectations of their father and society. The novel explores themes of love, family, tradition, and societal expectations. It is a classic tale of two sisters trying to find their place in the world and ultimately discovering what truly matters in life.Right upon the announcement came proof. The beautiful door of the old colonial mansion opposite was thrown open, and clumsy and cautious motion was evident. Presently a tall, slender woman came down the path between the box borders, pushing a baby-carriage. It was undoubtedly a very old carriage. It must have dated back to the fifties, if not the forties. It was made of wood, with a leather buggy-top, and was evidently very heavy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
