His Sacred Family

by Helen R. Hull

About this book

Constance’s engagement to Lynn Holt draws her into the expectations and loyalties of his family. An evening at church makes her increasingly aware of the tensions between those loyalties and the people she cares about.

Helen R. Hull’s complete adult short story explores love, judgment and the pressure to accept a family’s version of events. First published in Harper’s Magazine in November 1922, it retains Robert Lynn Lambdin’s original illustrations.
