When Captain Merridene dies, his daughters Martha & Penelope are left penniless.

They take an unusual job offer – as teachers in the distant town of Tapton, working for mill owner Jonas Wright. They are charged with educating not only Jonas’s four young daughters, but also the more promising mill workers.
