Upon their wedding morn, all of the men in the peaceful Arcadian province are summoned to the church to hear a proclamation by the British. When assembled they are all seized and shipped off by the English tricksters to be distributed among the New England states. Among those thus deported is Gabriel, the new bridegroom. Evangeline sets out in search of her lover and husband. She wanders down New England for years, longing, hoping, praying, but to no avail. At last when she is an old woman she finds her bridegroom in a hospital on his death bed. The shock proves so great that she succumbs to death herself, after a murmured prayer of thanks to the Almighty, for restoring her loved one to her. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
