"Rutledge" by Miriam Coles Harris is a novel that begins with the protagonist, a young girl, leaving her boarding school, St. Catharine's, to live with her aunt and cousins. The narrative opens on a gloomy November day, capturing the emotional turmoil of leaving behind friends and the familiar environment of school. The protagonist is accompanied by Mr. Arthur Rutledge, an accomplished gentleman, who is to escort her to her new home. The journey is fraught with anxiety and discomfort, especially when a train accident occurs, leaving the protagonist injured and in a state of confusion. Mr. Rutledge takes her to his country estate, Rutledge, where she is to recover. The house, though grand, feels oppressive and mysterious, particularly with the presence of the stern housekeeper, Mrs. Roberts. As the protagonist recuperates, she learns about the history of the Rutledge family, including the mysterious disappearance of Alice, Mr. Rutledge's sister. The narrative explores themes of growth, the passage from childhood to adulthood, and the search for identity amidst unfamiliar surroundings. The protagonist's journey is not just physical but also emotional, as she navigates her fears, builds new relationships, and uncovers the secrets of the Rutledge household.
