Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Wilderness Rose Mistress Drew, mother of three unmarried daughters, becomes jealous of Naomi Dickinson, because John Sylvester, the Minister´s son, had admired Pentecost Drew, the oldest daughter, until Naomi and her father came to the settlement. After Naomi´s father dies and while John Sylvester is away finishing a course of study at Harvard, Mistress Drew spreads the story that Naomi is a witch. She rouses such prejudice against the girl that Naomi under the guidance of Warawan, a friendly Indian, plans to escape to another settlement that she may not harm her lover´s work for God. The Selectmen and Council appear at the house of the Minister, acquaint him with their intention of arresting and trying Mistress Naomi, and in spite of his defense of her are about to inform her of their decree when the meeting is broken up by the entrance of Mistress Drew and other women, who have just seen Naomi depart with the "evil one" into the forest. The Minister and all except Goody, caretaker for the Minister, go in search of Naomi. They find her with Warawan, the friendly Indian, tending the Indians of the settlement who are suffering from small-pox. They being unseen by her are glad to escape with their repentant hearts turned in her favor. Meanwhile Goody, the caretaker, has gone to Naomi´s house and acquainted her with the decree of the Council.
