Morning dawned on the Hall as it was wont to do. Outside, several kindred puppies chased the squawky white birds that Mrs. Beale loved so much. They had been told they couldn't kill and eat the birds, but no one had said anything about chasing. The horses were being groomed in their stalls in case anyone wished to go riding later, and the gardens were bursting with colorful blossoms just asking to be picked.
Inside, the Hall was bustling. Servants scurried to and fro in case their new guests needed anything. In the kitchen, Mrs. Beale reigned supreme. She was planning a feast that would tempt even the most jaded palates of her guests. It was a only the most foolish person who would trespass on her desmesne today. Helene, the housekeeper, presided over whole droves of maids and footmen; dusting, polishing, shining. The banister, for example, was burnished to a brilliant shine.
As for the family, they could be found in various places throughout the day.
