The Discarded Daughter is a comedic play written by Joseph P. Pirsson and originally published in 1832. The play is divided into five acts and follows the story of a young woman named Emily who is disowned by her father after she marries against his wishes. Emily's husband dies shortly after their marriage, leaving her alone and penniless. She is taken in by a wealthy family, but her father refuses to acknowledge her as his daughter and instead favors her spoiled and selfish sister. The play explores themes of family, love, and class as Emily navigates her way through her new life and tries to win back the love and respect of her father. With witty dialogue and humorous situations, The Discarded Daughter is a delightful and entertaining play that will leave readers laughing and cheering for Emily until the very end.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
