The story 1s/almost primitive. It 4s-a tale of elemental passions such as would hardly come to light! + among péople of wealth and education. Such a culmination would Be ~~ exceptional in New York City. 4 Chester Gillette himself would be called the village beau, or the village masher, according to. the ‘point of . . Grace Brown was farmer's daughter, who: tried _to escape the monotony. of her home) life by working in the village f. tory. She had more money. to) spend and she, dressed better than her sisters. She grew aloof from her father and mother, whose ad- vice she did not seek and in whom} she did not confide. In the village life she ranked so-! clally below the girls who did not) work in the factory, and* whom | hester Gillette escorted to picnics, - dances and from church. His attentions to her flattered her. His prom yj. Eses to her fell upon credulous ears. She yielded. When the time came for these promises to be fulfilled she still trusted. Delays did not at first shake her faith. Then she became in- sistent that Gillette should marry her. Had her social position been higher, had Gillette seen any way to advantage himself by keeping his promise, it is very likely that he would have done so. Morally, mentally and physically Gillette was a coward. The masher type of man always is. The man voluble of promises almost always is. The qualities which enabled Gillette to fascinate Grace Brown could not have existed in a man of truth, fidelity and honor. Grace Brown could not believe that Gillette was trying to abandon . her, Possibly he never told her frankly that his promises would not be . kept, but instead postponed and evaded until her hope grew des and she poured out her soul in those pathetic letters of self-confession to him and to her girl friend. She was not a bad girl. Neither was she a vindictive girl. The qualities which enable a woman to be successful at vice were absent. Her childhood had been too simple and her surroundings too plain and + elemental for her to conjure up mental excuses for her fall, and to im- agine alternatives to Gillette's falsehoods, 5 | As to what happened afterward, the exact tnith may never be to She left home to-cling to Gillette.
