AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Two prisoners released from gaol arrive in a valley, one seeking revenge on the man who had them imprisoned for his deed and one seeking only his family and life. The revenger meets their betrayer by chance, goes to stay at his new station, meets a drunken ex-clerk who had helped in the forgery, the betrayer's aunt who accuses him of poisoning her and is in the house when the betrayer is murdered. The drunk reforms and the aunt is accused at the inquest. (PB)
