Summary "Jaquelina" by Mrs. Alex. McVeigh Miller is a novel likely written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around Jaquelina Meredith, a young girl living a challenging life with her austere aunt and uncle on a farm, filled with dreams of a better future through education and adventure. The narrative hints at her encounter with an outlaw chief, which creates a conflict between her aspirations and the harsh realities of her situation. The opening of the novel introduces readers to Jaquelina, who is portrayed as a spirited and imaginative young girl amidst the dull and unkind environment of her aunt and uncle's home. She finds solace in books and dreams of escaping her mundane life for a better education, all while navigating familial responsibilities, such as caring for her demanding cousin Dollie. As the chapter unfolds, we learn about her longing for freedom and a chance to shine, contrasted with the mundane chores she faces, setting the stage for her later adventures and the themes of ambition, bravery, and the quest for personal identity that will likely play a central role in her journey.
