In the morning, the entourage gathered. Charlotte handed Archie a basket to set inside the carriage. The baby buggy already was strapped to the back of the carriage.

“I’m surprised Miss Brewster has not moved out of the house,” Archie said, “after the stir she caused. Surely she has resources to stay somewhere else.”

“She won’t leave without the baby.” Charlotte thought that much was obvious.

“Mrs. Banning could insist.” Archie stood beside the open carriage door.

Charlotte shook her head. “She can’t risk what Miss Brewster might do in a showdown.”

“And what might Miss Brewster do?” Archie twirled a button on his jacket. “She has no claim.”

“She might bring in the authorities,” Charlotte said. “Then the Bannings would have no claim either.”

The front door opened and Emmaline Brewster appeared at the top of the steps with the baby in her arms. Behind her was Violet Newcomb, and then Sarah.

Emmaline had decided that Chicago Day was the perfect day for the fair. Such an undertaking required elaborate preparations, however, so Emmaline had conscripted Archie to drive the carriage and lift the baby buggy, and both Charlotte and Sarah to help manage Henry or attend to other needs that she and Violet might have.

“Didn’t she go to the fair last week?” Archie asked.

Charlotte nodded. “With one of Miss Newcomb’s eligible bachelors. I don’t think she much cared for him, but she did like the fair.”

“Does Mrs. Banning know she’s taking the baby?”
