The Golden Tune That Claimed a Final Rest
In a grim Kennington attic, old watchmaker George Brook and his daughter Agnes face poverty and illness. Agnes, fading from years of factory work, and Brook labor by candlelight to finish a faulty musical box. With the box repaired, the two share a last, silent moment as Agnes dies, the room silent after the final note of Jerusalem the Golden.
