She was a notable housewife; her work was already done and well done; she "ran" the Sewing Circle, helped run the Sunday-School, and was the strongest prop of the Church Aid Society and Foreign Missions Auxiliary.

There are plenty of people in Avonlea and out of it, who can attend closely to their neighbor‘s business by dint of neglecting their own; but Mrs. Rachel Lynde was one of those capable creatures who can manage their own concerns and those of other folks into the bargain.

CHAPTER I. Mrs. Rachel Lynde is surprised
Mrs. Rachel Lynde lived just where the Avonlea main road dipped down into a little hollow, fringed with alders and ladies‘ eardrops and traversed by a brook that had its source away back to the woods of the old Cuthbert place; it was reputed to be an intricate, headlomg brook in its earlier course through those woods, with dark secrets of pool and cascade; but by the time it reached Lynde‘s Hollow it was a quiet, well-conducted little stream, for not even a brook could run past Mrs. Rachel Lynde‘s door without due regard for decency and decorum; it probably was conscious that Mrs. Rachel was sitting at her window, keeping a sharp eye on everything that passed, from brooks and children up, and that if she noticed anything odd or out of place she would never rest until she had ferreted out the whys and wherefores thereof.
