A gentle love story set in a period when ladies were incredibly prim and gentlemen were endowed with a chivalry little known to today's generation. It begins in 1805 in the home of Miss Susan and Miss Phoebe Throstle. The doorbell rings and when the door is opened by the maid, Phoebe, played by Ruth Chatterton, enters very excited. Her elder sister Susan enquires after her excitement and Phoebe tells her that she has just met a certain Mr. Valentine Brown. A well known Physician, played by Brian Ahern.
