Excerpt from Miss. Deborah's Pocketbook: A Play in One Act How a dimity gown and destiny decidedly changed the views of a wealthy and proud maiden lady, living in a small town, is set forth in this simple, but effective, little play. Miss Deborah Hollis is visited by two ladies seeking subscriptions on a day on which she has lost a large sum of money, and is also greatly annoyed by the fact that a poor family has just moved in next door. She gives generously to buy a present for the prominent president of her club, but meagerly to the Home Missionary Society. In the midst of her denouncement of the poor, a young girl, one of the new neighbors, appears with the lost money. She proves to be the daughter of Miss Hollis' long-lost brother, and Miss Deborah changes her mind about beggars, and finds a namesake.
