Markham, a poet, writes to Holt, the editor of "The Independent," to submit a poem for publication. He remarks that "time is running close," apparently because the poem is for Thanksgiving. The poem, "Give Thanks, O Heart!" is included with the letter and commemorates leaders and those who have fought and died in battle.
