Summary
Celia Mulligan is in love with farmhand Andy McCadden, but her father refuses to let his daughter marry a mere labourer. Celia elopes with Andy and they take a ship to England. While on board, Celia meets Annabel, a demure young woman who tells her in confidence that a friend of her father forced himself upon her and she is pregnant. Annabel asks Celia if she will accompany her to Birmingham as her lady's maid. Andy encourages Celia to accept - he can find employment for himself and save for their future. But soon Celia is forced to choose between the man she loves, and the love of a vulnerable child..
