"The Gates Ajar" by Elizabeth Stuart Phelps is a religious novel. Mary Cabot of Homer, Massachusetts, has recently been notified of Royal Cabot's death, the brother to whom she is intensely devoted. He was a soldier "shot dead" in the American Civil War. Their parents are deceased, and Mary is unable to find sympathy and relief from anyone -acquaintances, the church deacon, or the pastor. Losing her religious faith, she increasingly despairs. Eventually, she turns to Winifred Forceythe, her widowed aunt who arrives from Kansas with her daughter, Faith.
