A loaf and a candle seek a missing master
In a flood struck canal town, a crowd searches for a missing master. A loaf with a hollowed center holds a candle, drifted on the dark water as wind shifts and a camp of mill girls and workers watch lights glint on rippling tide and rails. The scene blends danger with quiet humor as survivors cope with wrecked locks, fallen banks, and a town flooded by night.
