The rest of the people looked up to us , because we were the granddaughters of old Squire Meredith .<br>The Newbridge young men would have thought it no use to try to woo a Meredith .<br>I had not a great deal of family pride , as perhaps I should be ashamed to confess .<br>I found our exalted position very lonely , and cared more for the simple joys of friendship and companionship which other girls had .<br>But Hester possessed it in a double measure ; she never allowed me to associate on a level of equality with the young people of Newbridge .
The granddaughters of old Squire Meredith had a rich and rewarding social life.
