Watercres Farm and the Dream of a Farmer's Son
In a Somersetshire village, farmer Abraham Leigh faces a son Gerald who loves clay modeling over farming. Mr. Herbert, an art-loving landlord, discovers Gerald's talent and offers guidance and schooling, proposing a future beyond tenancy. The tale traces family duty, social class, and the lure of artistic vocation as Gerald departs Coombe-Acton with hope for a different life.
