It sounds to me like Edith was a very fortunate girl growing up and also even well into her life after she was married in eighteen eighty five. It’s hard to imagine marrying someone more than a decade older than you are, but here is a good example of money doesn’t always buy happiness. The story the other two is somewhat confusing to me because it talks about so many people back and forth so many times. I guess since Alice has been married it would be hard for it not to be confusing or have some meaning behind it. It would be difficult losing a child to a disease but back then it was much more common than it is today. Also since Alice had the child with a previous husband the visitation would be rather difficult to deal with as well. When Alice’s third husband walks in his own house and saw his wife’s two previous husbands there I think he put his own marriage to perspective. It would have to make you wonder why the first two didn’t work out and if there would as well. After the realization of situation set in it would be very awkward to carry on. When Alice walked into the room and saw all three of her husband’s standing there that had to be a very uncomfortable and overwhelming feeling. It was just a coincidence that they were all there at the same time but very unpleasant to say the least. I think Edith some what makes this story idea from her personal life.
