The story revolves around the life of Ethelyn Percival, a young and beautiful girl who is the only daughter of a wealthy family. Ethelyn falls in love with a young lawyer named Arthur Irving, but her parents disapprove of the match and forbid her from seeing him. Ethelyn, however, is determined to marry Arthur and elopes with him. The couple settles in a small town where Arthur sets up a law practice. Ethelyn soon realizes that life is not as easy as she thought it would be, and the couple struggles to make ends meet. Ethelyn's parents refuse to forgive her for eloping, and she is left to fend for herself.As the story progresses, Ethelyn faces several challenges, including financial difficulties, illness, and the death of her husband. She also discovers a secret that her husband has been keeping from her, which threatens to destroy everything she has worked for. With the help of her friends and family, Ethelyn overcomes these challenges and learns to make peace with her past mistakes. The novel explores themes of love, family, forgiveness, and the consequences of our actions. Olney was a thriving, busy little town, numbering five hundred inhabitants or thereabouts. It had its groceries, its dry goods stores, and its two houses for public worship--the Methodist and Presbyterian--while every other Sunday a little band of Episcopalians met for their service in what was called the Village Hall, where, during weekdays, a small, select school was frequently taught by some Yankee schoolmistress. It had its post office, too; and there was also talk of a bank after the railroad came that way, and roused the people to a state of still greater activity.
