Midshipman Trapped in Woods Faces Pursuer and Provoking Escape
An itinerant midshipman travels with a coach through a wood where a pursuing man hunts him for robbery. The boy zigzags, following an owl, loses his path, endures peril at night, and finally reaches a farmer’s gig near the parsonage. He recounts a calm return home as dangers are said to be more spiritual than physical, and the family welcomes him back with prayers and caution about trusting earthly security.
