From the Vue Ortcons Grescunt TAS UNCLAIMED HEAD BY MARY ASHLEY a macabre tale blends melodrama and mystery. A wealthy husband confronts guilt after a murdered lover and a missing child surface amid coroner intrigue and a chilling stranger claiming an unclaimed head.
The piece reflects on lasting memories of childhood home and the old landmarks that shaped early feelings. It recalls the tree, river, school boy days, the Schont house, and a parent’s love that later blessed a life, while pondering future joys and sorrows on life’s pilgrimage.
A mishmash of giddy anecdotes and folky witticisms. The piece mixes marriage jokes with street lore and humorous quips about editors, parsons, bankers, sailors, and fashion. It reads as a collage of old humor and rural observations with scattered puns and proverbs.
