AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Rural American romance of the schoolhouse. A young teacher at her first school takes a special interest in a diligent pupil - two years younger than her. When he saves her from unwelcome advances she thanks him but tells him she cannot return his love. A year teaching in the city and a bad attack of brain fever caused by his studies for the bar unite them ... Simple wholesome romance; woman's position as teacher and older than youth only distinguishing features. (PB)
