The opening of the book introduces the reader to the Carruth household on a stormy afternoon, highlighting the lively and spirited nature of the youngest sister, Jean. While her sisters engage in domestic activities, Jean's persistent desire for adventure leads her outside, where she discovers an old, blind horse named Baltie trapped in a ditch. Showing remarkable courage, Jean attempts to rescue Baltie and brings attention to his plight, leading to an encounter with the heartless owner, Jabe Raulsbury.
