Nugget Blazes Hope in Australian Diggings Auction Row
Neville abandons the mine to fetch water and returns with a glittering nugget worth over a thousand pounds. He plans to exchange it with the bank agent at Camp Henry Macgregor as the Lorn Hope crowd plots a cruel auction of an orphan girl. Neville’s eye is drawn to a pale frightened girl among a group of hopeful buyers while the crowd jokes about the girl’s fate.
