Summary: "Old Mr. Tredgold" by Mrs. Oliphant is a fictional novel written in the late 19th century. The story centers around the lives of two sisters, Katherine and Stella Tredgold, and their interactions with their father, Mr. Tredgold, a retired City man. The narrative delves into themes of familial relationships, societal expectations, and the contrasting personalities of the sisters, with Katherine being more serious while Stella is characterized by her charm and vivacity. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to the Tredgold family, who have settled in a beautiful home on the Isle of Wight.
