Romance between a Dakota doctor and a Mennonite nurse. They meet when a young Russian Mennonite boy is injured and he proposes when she runs to him to ask how she may live in 'the world' as she does not wish to marry. She does marry him - to assist in his work and care for him, and he is happy (she 'reflects' his glory.) (PB)
