Counter currents. Porter E.

The mother of five-year-old Margaret leaves for a moment in the waiting room for the central station of New York. Due to the tragic circumstances, the “minute” is stretched for long four years of deprivation, which turned the affectionate little Miss Kendall into a fearless and incredulous thunderstorm of the slum, nicknamed Mag-S. But all this time, the hearts of the mother and daughters, like two oncoming trends, continue to strive for each other.

The sentimental story belongs to the pen of the American writer Elinor X. Porter (1868-1920), the author of books about Pollyanna.
