Edith Wharton was born on January 24, 1862. This American novelist features a cat crime in her acclaimed story, Ethan Frome. This scene is 19th century New England, in a farmhouse, and I quote some of the drama: (Ethan says in reference to a broken piece,)
..."the cat done it."...And Zeena says,
"I'd like to know how the cat got into my china closet...."Chasin' mice, I guess...there was a mouse round the kitchen all night." "Zeena emitted her small strange laugh.'I knew the cat was a smart cat...but I didn't know he was smart enough to pick up the pieces of my pickle-dish and lay 'em edge to edge on the very shelf he knocked 'em off of.'"
Well you can get a copy of the book to find out the finish of this shelf hanger. You need to refresh your Edith Wharton anyway.
