E-text prepared by Roger Frank and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team (http://www.pgdp.net)
"The Motor Maids by Palm and Pine" by Katherine Stokes is a novel written in the early 20th century. It follows the adventurous escapades of a group of young women, known as the Motor Maids, as they embark on a journey to Florida for a delightful Easter trip. The story focuses particularly on Wilhelmina Campbell and her companions as they navigate travel and new experiences, all under the promotional care of Mr. Duncan Campbell, Wilhelmina's father, and their enigmatic host, Mr. Ignatius Donahue. The opening of the book introduces us to Wilhelmina and her friends as they set off from a dreary West Haven to the vibrant atmosphere of Palm Beach. They travel in a private railway car, enjoying surprises from Mr. Campbell, including gifts for the young women and their beloved automobile, the Comet. Upon arrival, they are greeted with kindness and attention from their host and his staff, which includes a young chauffeur named Edward. The initial journey is characterized by excitement and camaraderie, setting the stage for the girls’ adventures as they interact with various characters, including fellow travelers and locals. The narrative promises an engaging mix of friendship, youthful exuberance, and the inevitable trials of their vacation, foreshadowing rich developments as the story unfolds.
