AbstractHistoryArchive Description
A town's alcoholic doctor is persuaded by a local gentleman squatter's brother to assist in his impersonation of the dying man so as to gain control of his estate. A young doctor arrives in town - the squatter's son who he had quarrelled with and wanted to restore to his inheritance. Luckily the older doctor relents, and the younger one claims his rights and a wife. (PB)
