Her Mother's Oath

Her Mother's Oath

Drama

17m

June 28, 1913 (112 years ago)

Overview

The orthodox mother's indomitable will dwarfed the child's individuality, defeating the very purpose it would attain. The girl ran away with an actor and the fearful prayer, "If I ever speak to that man again, may God strike my mother blind," was fulfilled, but in the end the woman was saved from herself.
