The Lady's Maid's Bell is a novella written by Edith Wharton, first published in 1902. The story is set in England and follows the life of Alice Hartley, a young woman who takes up the position of lady's maid to the wealthy Mrs. Brympton. Alice is a quiet and reserved woman, who is content with her simple life of serving her mistress. However, she soon becomes haunted by the sound of a bell that only she can hear.As the story progresses, Alice becomes increasingly obsessed with the bell, and begins to believe that it is a warning of impending danger. Her fears are dismissed by Mrs. Brympton and the other members of the household, who believe that Alice is simply being superstitious. However, as events unfold, it becomes clear that Alice's fears may be justified.The Lady's Maid's Bell is a classic ghost story that explores themes of class, gender, and power. It is a haunting and atmospheric tale that is sure to captivate readers who enjoy gothic literature and psychological thrillers.After a while I slept; but suddenly a loud noise wakened me. My bell had rung. I sat up, terrified by the unusual sound, which seemed to go on jangling through the darkness. My hands shook so that I couldn't find the matches. At length I struck a light and jumped out of bed. I began to think I must have been dreaming; but I looked at the bell against the wall, and there was the little hammer still quivering.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
