The story is set in the fictional village of Thrums in Scotland, and follows the life of Gavin Dishart, a young and inexperienced minister who is appointed to the village. Gavin is initially met with skepticism and resistance from the villagers, but he soon wins them over with his sincerity and kindness. Along the way, Gavin falls in love with Babbie, a beautiful and mysterious young woman who is not what she seems. Their relationship is complicated by social and religious barriers, as well as the disapproval of the villagers. The novel explores themes of love, social class, religion, and the power of community. It is a charming and heartwarming story that has become a classic of Scottish literature.1891. Sir James Matthew, Baronet Barrie a Scottish journalist, playwright, and children's book writer who became world famous with his play and story about Peter Pan, the boy who lived in Never Land, had a war with Captain Hook, and would not grow up. The Little Minister begins: Long ago, in the days when our caged blackbirds never saw a king�������s soldier without whistling impudently, Come over the water to Charlie, a minister of Thrums was to be married, but something happened, and he remained a bachelor. Then, when he was old, he passed in our square the lady who was to have been his wife, and her hair was white, but she, too, was still unmarried. The meeting had only one witness, a weaver, and he said solemnly afterwards, They didna spaek, but they just gave one another a look, and I saw the love-light in their een. No more is remembered of these two, no being now living ever saw them, but the poetry that was in the soul of a battered weaver makes them human to us for ever.
