Legacy of Riverview Plantation Faithful Nurse at War's End
Aunt Charlotte guards two graves beside a ruined plantation house, tending roses from Captain Terrill's garden for Miss Margaret and Marie John.

After the blaze, Charlotte ferries Miss Margaret and Marie John, then nurses the survivor until new duties begin with Marie Coronel.
