"The Girl From Tim's Place" by Charles Clark Munn is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around a young girl named Chip McGuire, who struggles to escape a life of servitude and brutality in a remote wilderness community run by harsh individuals, including her outlaw father. Her flight from Tim's Place leads her through the challenges of nature and her own harrowing fears, setting the stage for themes of survival, resilience, and the search for a better life. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to Chip, a sixteen-year-old girl who is subjected to a miserable existence at Tim's Place, where she is treated as a menial servant. The opening illustrates her weariness and sense of despair as she overhears a discussion that reveals her father has sold her to a half-breed trapper named Pete Bolduc. Terrified of her impending fate, Chip decides to flee, embarking on a treacherous journey through the wilderness filled with supernatural fears inspired by the stories of an old Indian named Tomah. The opening of the book paints a vivid picture of her desperation and determination as she navigates both physical and emotional challenges, ultimately leading to a chance encounter with a more compassionate group of strangers who may help her rewrite her fate.
