Buying a Place on a New England Lake
A wealthy young man Jack Aborn pursues a lakeside estate owned by Dr Egerton after a chance encounter with a girl on a landing. Misunderstandings arise over price and class, and a correspondence blocks a sale until a revelation: the doctor and the girl, Carmella Egerton, reveal their plans. Aborn eventually learns the value of genuine ends and agrees to a symbolic price for the property.
