A House Party with the Tucker Twins

Page Allison has never experienced anything quite like a house‑party, and when General Price promises two weeks in his breezy river‑front estate, the excitement is contagious. The guest list reads like a lively scrapbook: the mischievous Tucker twins, Mary Flannagan, Shorty Hawkins, the sleepy‑named George Massie, and a pair of Kentucky boys fresh from university, plus a shy newcomer, Jessie Wilcox. Set against a picturesque hill overlooking the James River, the old country home becomes a playground for jokes, games, and the promise of endless summer fun.

In the midst of the merriment, a snag appears—Annie Pore, the girl Harvie most wants at the party, is being held back by her stubborn father. Determined not to let one absence spoil the mood, the friends hatch a light‑hearted scheme to coax the “tiresome old Englishman” into relenting. Listeners will be drawn into the spirited camaraderie and the gentle challenges of youthful ingenuity as the group navigates friendship, family, and the simple pleasures of a riverside gathering.
