The Two Husbands Trial and the Weaving of Truth
A ship captain sues for desertion in an old West Indies case. After years of silence the husband returns with a changed name and a dramatic witness, a daughter, who testifies to the rightful father and exposes the other's cruelty. The jury sides with the defendant, leaving the plaintiff to leave in disgrace.

Posey The Floating Straw Poem by Mackay
The poem portrays the floating straw as fearless amid wild Atlantic seas. The speaker stays undisturbed by wind rain or sea while mighty ships and crews fade away, and the straw rises toward the sky as a humble survivor against fate.
