Hoodoo Ann 1
The greatest heart throbs of life are not
always quickened into being by violence, sensation or thrills. Laughter, bitter tears and even tragedy frequent the humblest paths and create drama in the most obscure and peaceful corners of the earth.
2 The Clarissa Parker Orphanage.
3
The pet of the orphanage, who
thus early has learned the art of fawning.
GOLDIE - - - - MILDRED HARRIS

Hoodoo Ann, who, as a baby, had
been left at the Orphanage on one Friday, the thirteenth, without a friend to vouch for her.
She lives in sweet unconsciousness
of her unhappy lot.
HOODOO ANN - - MAE MARSH

She invents a test of cleanliness
that was never found in the pages of the Homely Ladies Journal.

In the same village, on Peaceful
Street, lives a young artist, whose cartoons are some day to make him famous.

of the town.
VANCE ... WILLIAM H. BROWN
14
Anxious as she was to please,
she was always in the way.
15 "If you think you're an
artist, paint the fence!"
16 After bedtime at the orphanage. A stolen moment with Cindy.
17 "You'll be hoodooed all your life, -
till you're married! - After that, chile, you ain't goin' to need no hoodoo to make trouble!"
18
While the Knapps, of Peaceful
Street, recall the loss of their little girl.
19 Recess time. Goldie neglects her family.
20
The stolen matches, the
beginning of trouble.
21
A playmate who doesn't
run away.
22 "Now I know where
your sweetheart lives!"
23
A temptation too great for a
hungry little heart.
24 Mothering
25 Tragedy
26
Broken, and now she can't
return it.
27 "Do you know anything
about Goldie's doll?"
28
A lesson about George
Washington, who never told a lie.
29 "A liar is bound to end
her days in prison!"
30
That evening. The boys inspect their dangerous
treasure.
31 "Where's my precious Goldie!"
32 "This is the wonderful child
who saved little Goldie."
33 "Do you really mean it? Am I
really going to ride in a Ford?"
34 "Did you hurt yourself?"
35 "Sure!"
36
Then comes the bitter thought
that she must go back to the orphans.
37 "I told you!"
38
With a heavy heart, she
is ready to go.
39 "You're going to stay here
and be our little girl."
40
Two years have now elapsed, with
no sign of the hoodoo.
In the matter of clothes, Miss Ann
has been allowed to go the limit, with "Vogy" as her guide.
41 Home from a party. Another dream come true.
42
A casual and mysterious stranger,
whom we advise you to remember.
43 "Good night!"
44 "Good night!"
45 "Good night!"
46 A short time later. The stranger again.
47 To "the movin' pitchers."

56 FATHERS DEAR OLD TIN PALE
57 WITH DEADLY AIM STRAIGHT AT
THE HEART OF HIS ENEMY -
58
Inspired by Pansy Thorne's work
in moving pictures, Ann rummages around for costumes.
59
Unconscious that the gun
is loaded.
60
The Higginses' daily quarrel
becomes more violent.
61 "This has gone far enough.
I'll put an end to it!"
62 "Was that a shot?"
63
The Higginses' windows
next door.
64
The constable and marshal
hear the shot.
65
Little Ann's hoodoo reappears,
grown into the dignity of tragic fate.
66 A strange disappearance.
67 Supper-time
68 "Have you seen Bill?"
69
Mrs. Higgins inquires of the
town marshal.
70 "What has become of him!"
71 The blood-spot.
72 "He's crawled away to die,
like the man in the picture!"
73 After a sleepless night.
74
Mrs. Higgins has applied to the
neighbors for help in her search.
75
For a moment poor little
Ann forgets her tragedy.
76 "I'm going to make a lot of money now. Will you have me?"
77 "I mustn't tell you the reason,
but I can't marry you."
78 "Got any trace of Bill
Higgins yet, Marshal?"
79 "That old woman's
made way with him!"
80 "We found blood-stains
on the back steps."
81
Constable Drake recalls
Ann's suspicious actions.
82 "Say, did you ever hear
them quarreling over there?"
83 "Ssh! I think it's
that girl of Knapp's."
84 "No, we got a pretty straight case
against Mrs. Higgins. She was heard to threaten him."
85
They try to force a confession
from Mrs. Higgins.
86 "You don't think I'd kill
my old man, do you?"
87 "I heard her say she'd fix him."
88 "She's innocent. I did it!"
89 "Well, you know
that hard cider ......."
90 "I 'lowed I wouldn't stand
Sarah's jawin' any longer!"
91 "I don't know
how long I slept."
92 "It was a darn cold night ......."
93 "And so you see I came back!"
94 "Here's yer cat, Mis' Higgins.
Somebody must a' shot it!"
95
The wedding of Ann is the funeral
of the hoodoo; and let us hope that Black Cindy's foreboding as to married life will never come true.
96 "Answer, or it won't happen!"
97 "Is it over?"
