astle Royale Awaits

ome time ago Baron Von Lodge was the head of a small country near Switzerland known as Lilliland.

Along the banks of Lake Lilliland stands a large manor house that has remained unoccupied for many years except for a married couple that are the caretakers. The windows have closed shutters and there are no flowers in the garden.

It used to be the home of Lady Patricia, who later became an angel know to the people of Lilliland as Archangel Patricia, who put an end to the shooting of animals in Lilliland many years ago.

The original Castle Pavale had a fire and had to be rebuilt. The design was changed from a traditional castle to a country manor house.

Archangel Patricia had a daughter named Patricia II. She lived in the castle and was married there. Unfortunately, she and her husband died on an ocean voyage. Her daughter, named Patricia III lived in New York with a relative. She studied fashion design and was a prominent designer in both New York and Paris.

Then one day, Patricia III decided to sell her fashion interest and become a fashion consultant. This would give her more time and freedom to explore her family background. She soon discovered that she wanted to follow in her grandmother’s footsteps of loving the beauty of nature and being kind to animals.

Patricia decided to return to her ancestral home in Lilliland. She would leave New York temporarily and go to Lilliland to see if that was really her new calling.

Patricia III decided to extend her annual Paris trip for a short time and visit Lilliland. She really did not have any contacts there, but knew of Professor Hamblin through a mutual friend.

A letter from the friend to Professor Hamblin was written and Patricia would receive some information about her ancestral home, Castle Royale, from the Professor.

Professor Hamblin was asked to send a representative to Castle Royale to meet with the caretakers to prepare the castle for Patricia. A staff had to be hired and provisions had to be ordered.

Patricia was still undecided about her future in Lilliland. But, in any event, she wanted to have Castle Royale made as attractive as possible.

Upon her arrival to Lilliland, Professor Hamblin would meet with her to make her feel welcome.
