Cousin Maude Produced by Charles Franks and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team. HTML version by Al Haines. "Cousin Maude" by Mary Jane Holmes is a novel likely written in the mid-19th century. The book explores themes of love, sacrifice, and complex family dynamics through the intertwined lives of its characters, particularly focusing on Matilda Remington, a widow, who is about to marry Dr. Kennedy, and her daughter, Maude Remington, who is caught in the emotional turmoil of this new family arrangement. At the start of the story, readers are introduced to Matilda, who is preparing for her marriage to Dr. Kennedy while grappling with the memories of her late husband, Harry. Matilda's hesitations about her new life are compounded by the arrival of Dr. Kennedy, who seems emotionally cold and self-serving. As they interact, Matilda reveals her motivations for the marriage, reflecting on her financial struggles and the need for stability. The introduction of little Maude, who has a clear aversion to her mother's fiancé, adds further complications to the familial tensions. The opening sets the stage for the ensuing conflict and emotional landscape that the characters will navigate as their lives become increasingly entangled.
