It is not without concern that the elder woman, set in her ways, views the coming of the girlish stranger almost as an intruder. The bride enters the secret domain of the darkened old parlor, whisks off the covers from the beloved furniture that have guarded it for years against dust and use, and with one full sweep, robs the room of all its straight-laced arrangement. The climax comes, however, when the widow, on returning home, finds Claire, the young wife, and neighboring children she had lured to the house, romping about the beloved parlor. The outraged one, in her excitement, upsets the table that falls upon Claire's ankle, breaking a bone. Then Mrs. Sherman, the widow runs for the doctor. In rummaging for bandages in Claire's bureau drawer, she comes upon an infant's gown, sadly bungled in the cutting, pathetic in the awkward sewing, a furtive attempt made by Claire's unskilled but loving hands. Then memories flood upon the woman, softening her by the discovery, and when Claire is convalescing, the treasured scraps are brought from concealment and the reconciliation between the two women is complete. The whole story glows with heart interest. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
