Section: Fiction
In the title-piece, Squire Hellman is an angry fiend of a man, bellowing constantly at his wife and servants, as well as all local dignitaries, and whipping his horses in a frenzy if he gets frustrated. However, one day, at a taxation court, he impatiently lets loose one too many times. The other three pieces are sketches of rural life, delineating with unusual intensity psychological situations where it is the characters' mindset which creates the drama: When Father Brought Home the Lamp about the coming of technology and the modern age; Pioneers about how heartbreakingly Finland's wilds were settled; and Loyal about young love and the resisting of temptation.
