Aimee Henry represents a threat to Mary Martha Parker Taylor, and the Baltimore society lady is having none of it, in this chapter filled with a shocking turn of events.
She has 24 hours. Mary Martha and her lawyer husband probably do not include her in their flamboyant lifestyle. They are perhaps fearful of what secrets she might idly spread. So I am guessing she may be left pretty much on her own at the mansion. So on the drive back from the insane asylum she hatches her plan to escape. She has some money but not much ... but enough for a train ticket to NYC where she hopes to get lost in the crowd, maybe even look for John at Columbia University. Lots of possibilities for a poor little rich girl, if she could only get away. But I dobt she will return to the asylum docilly.
