Description "Thunder Rock": The scene is a lighthouse, whose keeper, Charleston, has been a famous journalist. A man of ideas and ideals. The last years had seen the destruction of all his hopes for humanity. He has fled the horrors of cracking civilisation for a hermit's life. He withdraws into his ivory tower, which in this case is a lighthouse on Lake Michigan, where his imagination
re-creates the past. The ghosts of 1839, whom he evokes in his anguish of mind, prove that no one need despair, since no one can tell what seeds of future growth lie dormant in the most destructive and apparently hopeles
