The story begins as a melancholic one, because a woman, whom no one seemed care about, had passed away and the people suddenly acted as if they were in mourning. This tone continues as the narrator reveals the miserable condition of the three children, especially of the sick and bed-ridden Maggie, whom none of the villagers was willing to take in. Once Joe Thompson took Maggie to his house, the time shifts from melancholy to that of hope; although Mrs. Thompson wanted to send Maggie to the poorhouse, her kindness towards the child foreshadowed a possible change in her attitude. Finally, when Mrs. Thompson realised that Maggie was responsible for bringing about their happiness, the tone becomes joyous.
