The Horse Dealer’s Daughter / Lawrence
This story was that of romance between the doctor and the horse dealer’s daughter. The characters included Mabel, Joe, three brothers, the doctor, and Malcolm. The young doctor falls in love with the girl after he watches her at the graveyard and follows her to the pond. The young doctor watches the girl slowly disappear into the dark pond. He goes into the pond still not knowing he loves her but to save her life as a doctor would do. The doctor helps to bring the water out of her body and return the breath to her lips. The doctor then takes her home and strips her down and wraps her in blankets to return warmth to her body still not thinking of him-self. The young doctor soon finds him-self unable to leave her side. There is a power greater than his own holding him mesmerized to stay with her. They soon realize that they want to be together always and are very much in love. This story was very interesting to me. There were a lot of twists and turns involved that led to the characters falling in love. I never seen this coming it was quite a surprise to me. The young girl went from someone who seemed suicidal to someone who fell in love and was able to receive love from a young man. I believe that the doctor saved her life in more ways than just pulling her out of the pond. The Doctor brought her a reason to live by loving her he showed her that there was more to life than the negative. She had lost her mother and she seemed to have lost herself with her. This story was worth reading and held my attention , where a lot of the other stories I found hard to follow and un interesting.
