Beyond her house lay the rich estate of Squire King, the wealthiest man in the community. It has long been the desire of Squire and Mrs. King, that their only son, Hal, should contract a wealthy marriage, and when the squire discovered an attachment between his son and Dora, a poor girl of the village, he promptly attempted to stop it in her hour of sorrow Dora came to Mary, to whom she told her story, and here, later, Hal came, having decided to assert his manhood and marry Dora against his father's wishes. To this Miry did not agree, but decided to sacrifice her own pride to win the squire's consent. Mary set out to find the squire, and their meeting was fraught with many memories of the past, especially as Mary recalled to his mind their own love affair of many years before, of their brief happiness and their sorrow, as the squire is forced by his father to marry a wealthy bride, while Mary remains true to the memory of the man she once loved, and lives to be an old maid. She pleaded for the happiness of Hal and Dora, but seemed to fail. Later, however, the squire, "For old time's sake," gave his consent and assisted in the marriage of his son and Dora, bringing happiness even to himself as he sat alone in his fine, lovely house, dreaming of those he had made happy.
