scene. She has heard story or Anna
Moore's past, and her boundin' duty
is to relate it with great detail to the
squire and his wife. Anna Moore, says
the gossip, has been a mother. and heI
child lies buried in Belden churchyard
Continuing, the gossip lays much
stress on the fact that there is nc
wedding ring on the girls finger. The
squire, who believes in living accord
ing to the Scriptures, prepares to turn
the girl from the house. but refrains
until he makes an investigation to as
certain the truth of the story.
The third act shows the kitchen OF
the squires home. A terrific snow
storms reigns outside. The family and
the neighbors are gathered about the
supper table. The squire has gone to
Belden, and his return is awaited with
much anxiety. None knew the nature
of his errand but his wife and the VIII
lage busybody.
The squire returns as the supper is
placed on the table; he greets every
body but Anna in his big hearted way
Then he turns his wrath upon the girl
denounces her and drives her forth
into the storm. Before going, how
ever, the girl reveals the fact that she
has been the victim of a mock mar
riage and that her betrayer was even
then "A guest at the farmers table. This
episode furnishes the most stirring eli
max of the play.
The fourth act shows maple sugar
camp in New England forest. The
search for Anna Moore is in progress
She is found in snow drift more dead
than alive. The squire's forgiving ma
ture asserts itself, and the subsequent
ana prospective happiness Of David
and Anna is the natural sequence OF
the story. While the theme Of the
story is serious, there is a variety of
humorous incidents and comic charaC-
