| Summary |
"Peggy Raymond's Vacation; Or, Friendly Terrace Transplanted" by Harriet L. Smith is a fictional story likely written in the early 20th century. The narrative follows the charming and adventurous protagonist, Peggy Raymond, and her group of friends as they embark on a summer vacation in a country cottage away from their familiar lives in Friendly Terrace. The girls' excitement for their country retreat sets the tone for a series of engaging summer adventures and social interactions. At the start of the story, Peggy and her friends are introduced as they lounge on a porch, overcome by the oppressive heat of summer and yearning for the open fields of the countryside. Their plans to escape to Sweet Fern Cottage—a generous offer from an acquaintance—set off a whirlwind of excitement and preparations filled with youthful energy. As they navigate their initial arrival at the cottage, encounters with the locals, and whimsical challenges, the beginning establishes a vivid atmosphere of friendship and exploration that will undoubtedly characterize their vacation. The early interactions hint at both the fun and the misadventures that await the spirited group as they delve deeper into their country escape. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
