Old Village Tales of Faith and Family Unearthed
The fragmentary narrative portrays a rural New England village split by a church feud between Episcopalians and Presbyterians. It follows Malina Gray’s rebellious act at church, her sister Phebe’s defense, and the stern mother Mrs Gray as the family grapples with communal scrutiny and a vow to restore order. The piece blends memoir of landscape, graveyard memories, and a late insertion on grafting trees, attributed to Dr Lee and shared with horticulturists.
