The Two Green Ladies and the Hinman War
Jim Warburton discovers two women living on his land in a secluded hillside tea house called The Green Ladies. Sylvia Meade and her aunt Winifred claim the old Warburton Warburton deeds and a boundary marked by white birches as they operate a roadside bungalow along the motor highway. The scene centers on property lines, past conflicts between the families, and a tentative uneasy reunion as Warburton confronts squatters on the boundary.
