Publisher's Note: Elvirey and her family have settled into the Michigan woods, but still Elvirey longs to remember the life she left behind in Virginia. When she asks her family about what a church means to them, they all think of different things--singing, meeting neighbors, watching pretty gals. Now that new families are settling in around them, Granny thinks it's time to build a church. Pap's not so sure, but on a midsummer Sabbath morning, neighbors arrive at their cabin. As they fix dinner, the women begin telling stories of their difficult journeys westward, until the sorrow erupts in song. And suddenly, in the serene faces, the children playing, the men talking, Elvirey recollects what church means to her.
