Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Padre´s Little Caretaker a Romance of the Carmel Mission Her name was Carmelita, as had been her mother´s and grandmother´s before her. It could hardly have been otherwise, for, like them, she had first seen the light of day in the little cottage under the pear trees which Padre Junipero Serra, of blessed memory, had planted with his own hand, at Carmel - his favorite mission. For generations her mother´s family had handed down from daughter to daughter the office of caretaker of the church and its holy relics. And Carmelita had always known that one day her turn would come. She would marry, of course, when old enough; but marriage had never interfered with this sacred office - nor with much else in the Carmel valley. Pedro, Carmelita´s father, had herded cattle in the adjacent meadows, and fished in the bay of Carmelo. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
