Tonight, we’ll read the ninth chapter to “Anne of Green Gables” the classic 1908 novel by Lucy Maud Montgomery. This chapter is titled “Mrs. Rachel Lynde is properly horrified”.

In the last episode, titled “Anne’s Bringing-Up Has Begun”, Anne learns from Marilla that she can indeed stay at Green Gables permanently. Anne is so happy, she cries.

Marilla instructs Anne to memorize the Lord’s prayer. Anne asks Marilla if she might find “a kindred spirit” in Avonlea. Marilla says there is another girl named Diana who is Anne’s age. Anne is excited to meet her, and excited to now officially be “Anne of Green Gables”.
