Ben Pilley in Pontefract's Woods and a fate changed
A Yorkshire tale follows Ben Pilley, a gentle but unsettled man, as family ties and a failed astronomy post push him toward railroad labor then a life among the Pilley clan. Ill fates strike when a dispatch is misread delaying a train collision, but poetic justice later elevates Ben to a professorship while he remains the same steadfast figure.
