Synopsis "Marie"

Marie is a novel by H. Rider Haggard published in 1912 featuring Allan Quatermain. Real-life individuals like Piet Retief, Thomas Halstead, and the Zulu boss Dingane show up as characters. The novel depicts Qatermain's association with the 6th Xhosa war of 1835 and the Weenen mass murder.Quatermain is a young fellow and includes his first marriage, to the Boer farm girl, Marie Marais. Their love is opposed by Marie's enemy English father, and her despicable cousin Hernan Pereira, who wants Marie.The plot starts in Cradock, a District of Cape Colony, a wild spot with a handful of white settlers. Which begins as a childhood friendship, and gradually develops into full-fledged love. At some point, monsieur Leblanc goes to one of his Sunday riding campaigns. Thinking it stolen, he embarks to search for it whenever he by chance goes over two red Kaffirs. They follow the attacker to Maraisfontein and plan an ambush on it. Her father finds out about the affair and attempts to go against it since he had promised his girl's hand with another Boer called Hernando Pereira.He provokes Allan into a shooting match where they are to take shoot birds yet Allan beats him to the game, and he and different Boers along with Marie's family choose to move away. At the point when Hernando Pereira and his company show up, they are unhappy to see Allan alive and plan on the most proficient method to eliminate him. They structure a court to attempt Allan, build fraudulent allegations against him and sentence him to death by shooting. Allan's worker keeps an eye on them and a plot is made of how to protect him from death. They drug Allan's coffee with sleep-inducing herbs and hide him in a grain pit. A letter is given to Allan from Marie expressing gratitude toward him for saving her life multiple times, and saying that she has saved his life now eventually.
