David Harvey is a widower with a young son, Davey. They live on an isolated Ohio farm during the pioneer days. He wants his son to be raised in the manner his wife would have wanted - with proper schooling, Bible study and proper manners. Rachel, an indentured servant, is sold to David. David then marries her in order that little Davey would have a mother to properly raise him. David shows no real affection towards Rachel since this is a marriage of convenience. This all changes when Jim, a friend of the family comes for a visit. During his stay, David sees that there is more to Rachel than just being a "bonds woman", especially when Jim takes a liking to her. This awaken new feelings in David for Rachel. 译文(2): David Harvey 是个鳏夫，有个年幼的儿子 Davey。在拓荒时期，他们住在俄亥俄州一个与世隔绝的农场里。他希望自己的儿子按照妻子希望的方式成长——接受适当的教育，学习圣经，举止得体。瑞秋，一个契约劳工，卖给了大卫。然后大卫娶了她，这样小大卫就有了一个母亲来好好地抚养他。大卫对雷切尔没有表现出真正的感情，因为这是一场权宜之计的婚姻。当家里的一个朋友吉姆来拜访时，一切都变了。在他逗留期间，大卫发现瑞秋不仅仅是一个“债券女人”，特别是当吉姆喜欢她的时候。这唤醒了大卫对瑞秋的新感觉。
