Plot
A charming young girl with literary ambition but
no ability took her stories to the Editor, telling him that she was engaged to
an invalid curate, and that it was necessary for her to support them both by her
pen. The sympathetic Editor endeavored to teach her to write, but with small
success. The dying curate was emphatic in his disapproval of novels and pledged
Mary to give up her attempt to write them.
