A Crying Bedside Scene in New York City
A distressed young mother near death in a grim New York chamber drags out final hours as a blunt landlady mutters and a sympathetic visitor group debates the fate of the infant. A wealthy merchant and his wife later adopt the child, while Emma, the daughter, uncovers secrets of birth and lineage that shape her future.
