The Wisshhiccon tale of Paoli murder and a widow's test
In a Wisshhiccon scene a Continental named Warner confronts a Tory murderer after the Paoli massacre. A widow with two children offers mercy via a Bible trial, forcing the killer to plead while the orphaned girl’s random finger on a page tests fate. The tale ends with revelations of war's toll and a living wounded husband returning.
