Author Lincoln, Joseph Crosby, 1870-1944
Title Thankful's Inheritance
Credits Produced by Donald Lainson; David Widger
Summary "Thankful's Inheritance" by Joseph C. Lincoln is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book centers around Thankful Barnes, who, along with her cousin Emily Howes, embarks on a tumultuous journey to inspect an inherited property in the village of East Wellmouth, Massachusetts. Their journey is marked by a series of unexpected challenges, including a disastrous wagon ride through a storm and the discovery of their new home, a seemingly abandoned house filled with echoes of the past. At the start of the narrative, readers are introduced to Thankful and Emily as they travel to East Wellmouth in a rickety wagon. They struggle through a wild storm, getting stuck and finally crashing, which strands them in the middle of nowhere. Despite this, Thankful’s humorous and optimistic nature keeps the mood light even as they encounter the daunting circumstances of their arrival. The beginning of the novel sets the stage for their adventures, highlighting Thankful’s determination to take charge of her inheritance, and hints at peculiar mysteries surrounding the house they inherit, which draws them into a world of nostalgic memories and potential supernatural elements.
