An Angel in disguise is written by
American writer T. S. Arthur (1851).
The death of an alcoholic woman in the
village, leaving behind her three children is met with indifference. After her
funeral, the eldest son and the second daughter are adopted by two of the
villagers. But the third, and the youngest – Maggie, who has a damaged spine
and is fully bed ridden as a result of a fall, gets left behind.
Joe Thompson, the wheelwright of
the village feels bad for Maggie and takes her home even though he knows his
wife will not be happy. As expected, his wife is not too happy. Joe comforts
her quoting the Bible.
Next day Mrs. Thomson asks her
husband how he will get rid of Maggie and he replies he will work extra to see
that Maggie is send to the poorhouse. At dusk when he comes back, he is
surprised to find his wife sitting by Maggie’s bed side and talking to her. While
having supper she asks again, what he will do with Maggie, to which he answers
that she will be taken to the poorhouse the next day.
After supper, Joe sees his wife taking food to Maggie and waiting for her to finish it. Joe understands that Maggie’s innocence and love has won over his wife’s bitter and stony nature. Shortly his wife tells him that she would like to keep Maggie for a couple of days more. But happily, for all three of them, the ‘couple of days’ goes on and on and they live together as a happy family
