J.M. Barrie’s The Little Minister, a well-known emotional book, was first published in 1891 and was later dramatized in 1897. The Little Pastor follows Gavin Dishart, a young, destitute minister serving his first flock, and is set in Thrums, a Scottish weaving community modeled after Barrie’s hometown. Soon after, the weavers he serves riot in opposition to salary cuts and unfavorable working conditions. The weavers get ready for battle after Babbie, a stunning and enigmatic Gypsy, informs them that the local laird, Lord Rintoul, has called the militia. Babbie is saved by Dishart from the troops in the subsequent brawl. Dishart and Babbie fall in love, and he has no idea that she is a well-bred woman who is compelled to marry the elderly Lord Rintoul. The two finally achieve happiness after numerous obstacles.
