She goes to the city to train it, and is told that her voice is very ordinary; meanwhile, The Boy stays in the country. The Girl is proud and struggles to exist in the big city without owning her failure. The Boy hears of her plight and goes to the city to get her, but like the characters in "Evangeline" they miss each other by an eyelash. The Girl writes to him to come for her, but the letter is returned to her; thinking he does not care, she attempts suicide. The Boy is about to attempt suicide when he is stopped by the odor of mignonette. It is the girl's favorite perfume, and he knows she has been in the room. He learns all and goes to the hospital to find her, and they live happily ever after, as you knew they were going to do all the time. Written by
