The Loneliness of Neglect (1912)
Ralph Higgins and his wife had been married but a short time when the young husband, ambitious to better himself, moved with his bride to a deserted grant of land in the lonely hills. There was no human person near them, save an aged hermit of whom they quickly made a friend by giving him a much needed blanket. But crops failed and the love begun so blithely faded in the everlasting glare of hopeless sunshine, and, at the hopeless word of the hermit that no crops could prosper in that alkali deadened soil, the husband left to find a new home alone. He promised to send for her. A home he found and a land of promise. Crops grew and his stock multiplied, but he ever postponed sending for that lonesome wife back in the hills. Loneliness enveloped her and neglect ate deeply into her soul. One day a stranger came. He was nice to her and she begged him to remain. Temptation whispered and she came near answering. And then warned by the hermit, came the husband, proud and happy in his victory and joyous in thought of her innocent surprise when she could hear of it. He came--just at the right time to save her and his own happiness.
