In a November rainstorm gloom, Mrs Dobson and neighbors gather at Joanna Pitt's home to mourn Joanner Dobson, reflecting on her life, Sam Pitt's behavior, and the village's intertwined grief. They recall wedding vows, the impact of Joanner's death, and chatter about potential widower suitors and local gossip amid a somber, communal vigil.
