Bride Of The Birch - The Rosa Coote Letters
	“Tie her to the horse and get ready for business,” the General ordered, as he seated himself in the chair to look on at his ease. “Come, Rosa, dear, don’t be troublesome and make your grandfather more angry,” said Mrs. Mansell, unfastening my waistband. “Slip off your dress whilst the girls put the horse in the middle of the room.” “Oh! No! No! I won’t be whipped,” I screamed. “Oh! Sir! Oh grandfather! Do have mercy,” I implored, throwing myself on my knees before the old man. “Come, come, it’s no use showing the white feather, Rosa, it’s for your own good! Now, no more nonsense! Mrs. Mansell, do your duty, and let us get the painful business over with; she isn’t one of my stock if she doesn’t show her pluck when it comes to the pinch.” First published as a serial in the ‘underground’ magazine, The Pearl, in 1879 and 1880, Bride of the Birch is a series of letters from Miss Coote, now an old maid, to a younger lady friend. Miss Coote admits to being wedded to the birch rod and details her experiences of being severely whipped as a child, both at home by her grandfather, and then at school at Miss Flaybum’s Academy. As a woman of property, she sets up her own home with a strict disciplinary régime and the birch rod is in frequent use. The gardener’s wife and her two young daughters incur Miss Coote’s wrath for stealing fruit and all three are soundly flogged, as is a sneak-thief who tries to hide her ill-gotten gains in her private parts!
