Rose Mansion

Late in the closing months of the war between the state, out of a wholly and unconnected association, an expatriated Southern Professor is driven into the saving arms of his student, Isabel Chase, senior at Wellesley School For Girls. It is out of this benign setting, whereupon, fate commences to weave its first link in the strange, connecting chain of surprising events awaiting the two. In the absence of corollary proof of suspicion, Professor Snow flees the immediate cover of the school, and for the brief of time, is safely hidden in the attic of Rose Mansion by the courage of his graduating student, Isabel Chase. While not the most novel of sanctuaries, the stage is set for both the tribulations to follow and the certain, driven moments of emerging love. With the welcoming close of the war, and all charges against the Professor dismissed, Roger and his sweetheart, Isabel Chase, depart for his plantation home in Freedom Land, Charleston, South Carolina. Arriving none too soon, Roger quickly organizes a resistance to the South's new dilemma with a surprise offence of skill and deception to defeat the casualty under Roger's command, it is here under strange circumstances, that tragic events weave their heart breaking impress upon an otherwise joyful return. It is also from this point of our story, that "Time," which knows no master, chooses to be the lead player to justly and surprisingly move our tale along to whence it began. Quite, with a mind of its own, and in fashion mysterious, . . . Mystically returns to "Rose Mansion." A place of beginning, and of Someone waiting. . . . . . .
