| Summary | "The Atlantic Monthly, Volume 18, No. 109, November, 1866" by Various is a literary magazine published during the mid-19th century. This volume features a collection of essays, stories, and articles, reflecting issues of literature, science, art, and politics that were relevant at the time. The opening portion introduces a narrative centered on a young girl named Rhoda Breck, who finds herself taken in by Uncle Bradburn's household, highlighting themes of class, kindness, and the struggles faced by the less fortunate. At the start of the narrative, Uncle Bradburn discusses employing Rhoda, a young girl who is about to be sent to the poor-house, to assist in the household. The characters contemplate the implications of taking her in, with much emphasis on compassion and community responsibility. As Rhoda arrives, her distinct mannerisms and clothing reflect her difficult life, and the household's responses and interactions reveal their perceptions of poverty and kindness. This poignant introduction sets the stage for an exploration of social themes such as kindness, family dynamics, and the quest for a better life in 19th-century American society.
