Chapter 14 Slandered By Emmeline

• The person who opened the door for them was Margaret Saunders, Emmeline's mother.
• Jonathan's impression of his mother-in-law was that she was extremely coarse, mean, and petty. Since he married into the Smith family, she had never liked him and took pleasure in humiliating him or making him run errands.
• The list of errands he had to do was endless, including replacing faulty lightbulbs, cleaning the dishes, vacuuming the floor, fixing the toilet, and even washing Margaret's undergarments because she was too lazy to do it herself.
