Bedford Fourth of July Festivity and a Young Man's Choice
In Bedford a village marks Fourth of July with a grand plan led by Squire Whitcomb. Tom Whitcomb, chosen as orator in place of his friend, reunites with Susie Campbell at the Widow Campbell’s, faces a competing suitor believed to be her uncle, and learns a hard lesson in love and responsibility.
