Only An Incident is a novel written by Grace Denio Litchfield. The book tells the story of a young woman named Margaret, who is forced to confront the realities of life when she is suddenly widowed. Margaret's husband, a successful lawyer, dies unexpectedly, leaving her alone with their young daughter. As she struggles to come to terms with her grief, Margaret must also navigate the complicated social expectations of her upper-class New York City community.Over the course of the novel, Margaret is forced to confront her own limitations and biases as she grapples with the challenges of raising a child on her own. Along the way, she forms unexpected friendships and alliances, and begins to question the values and beliefs that have shaped her life up to this point.Only An Incident is a powerful exploration of grief, loss, and the complexities of human relationships. Litchfield's vivid prose and nuanced characterizations make this a must-read for anyone interested in the social and psychological dynamics of early 20th-century America.And then he sat in the dark, disordered room below, impatiently enough, anxiously waiting for news from Phebe. The time seemed to him interminable before at last the door opened, and Gerald entered, bearing a lamp. The vivid light, flung so full upon her, showed traces of passionate weeping; and her white dress all scorched and burned and hopelessly ruined, with the rich lace hanging in shreds from the sleeves, made her a startling contrast indeed to the usually calm, self-possessed, perfectly-dressed Gerald Vernor.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
