Civil War veter[ZiYuantun.Com]an Josiah Grey comes to a small town to be a gospel minister. In time he has a family and many friends, but he also finds friction with a few of his parishioners. A young doctor grates at what he feels is the parson's interference in the scientific treatment of patients, and a mine owner resents Grey's protection of an old sharecropper whose small plot of land stands in the way of his continued mining. Grey must face a public health crisis and a lynch mob as a result, all seen and described through the eyes and memory of Grey's young nephew John. 译文(3): 内战老兵乔赛亚·格雷来到一个小镇担任福音牧{资源屯-ziyuantun.com}。随着时间的推移，他有了家人和许多朋友，但他也发现与一些教区居民有摩擦。一位年轻的医生对牧师干涉病人的科学治疗感到愤怒，而一位矿主则对格雷保护一位老佃农感到愤怒，因为他的一小块土地阻碍了他继续采矿。格雷必须面临公共卫生危机，并因此面临私刑暴徒，所有这些都是通过格雷年轻侄子约翰的眼睛和记忆看到和描述的。
