hornets nest=>hornet's

hyphenate dove-painted

I recognized [him] from a portrait

held my mouth - if it could had been corralled (spaces surround dash)

Intro--Jane widowed--why did you omit the phrase you had in prior chapters "now remarried"?

This is a great chapter and a joy to read. Jane is indeed a spitfire and full of gumption. This story has grown on me so much that I am wishful that there is more when I come to the end.
