Rich Miss Eleanor Slinglander scorns the Christmas present sent to her by her swain and despatches it to her sewing girl - once wealthy but now fallen on hard times. It contains an offer of marriage which the girl - Ella - accepts and the suitor decides he has the best bargain after all. Light; unlikely. (PB)
