Summary: "An Old Chester Secret" by Margaret Wade Campbell Deland is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story is set in a small town called Old Chester and revolves around the life of Miss Lydia Sampson, an open-hearted and somewhat eccentric woman known for her inability to keep secrets.

However, her life takes a turn when she unexpectedly departs for Mercer, leaving behind a mystery that intrigues her neighbors.
