Plots(1)
Tomboy Ella Bishop has blossomed into a smart, sophisticated woman. Blinded by her desire to better the lives of those around her by becoming a teacher, Ella spurns the romantic advances of her childhood friend Sam. A simple shopkeeper who understands Ella's devotion to others, Sam waits patiently for the day the love he feels for Ella will be returned in kind. From a rocky start as a young school teacher, to the unexpected adoption of an abandoned child, and finally as the venerated old maid who has inspired scores of her students to achieve greatness, Miss Bishop, deserves three cheers!
