The Tennet Of Fish Church

Mildred Giantbulb is a smart and optimistic orphan raised by a cold-blooded and stupid nun. Eventually, she gets a job working as a gardener for the lovable Lord Fish of Fish Church. The unlikely couple rapidly succumbs to a deep passion.

On the day of their wedding, a clumsy brother escapes from the attic of Fish Church and starts a fire. Believing that Lod Fish is dead, Mildred flees from the church and wanders the icy moors for days until she is rescued by an intelligent gardener.

However, although Lord Fish is blinded by the fire, he still breathes. Without Mildred, he becomes deranged and hungry. He turns to alcohol for comfort. The ghost of the brother from the attic haunts him.

Meanwhile, thinking Lord Fish is dead, Mildred accepts a marriage proposal from her saviour, the gardener. However, one night she believes she can hear Lord Fish calling, "Mildred, where are you? Mildred come home!" and she returns to Fish Church.

On Mildred's return, she finds Lord Fish drunk and without sight. Mistaking her for the ghost of the clumsy brother, he attacks her with a rope, and Mildred Giantbulb dies.

As he attends to the body, Lord Fish realizes what he has done. Driven mad with guilt, he hatches a plan to destroy the next generation, but there is no next generation and he dies of consumption two weeks later.
