The keepsake

Marty Lanegan is working as a boot boy in York's splendid Station Hotel, when he catches sight of the most beautiful girl he's ever seen. Herietta Ibbetson is the daughter of a prominent landowner, who's far from pleased with his rebellious daughter. When she announces her love for a mere servant, he throws her out. Marty's family is one too delighted with his choice - Etta can't cook, sew, clean or make herself useful in any way. However, Marty is ambitious, Etta is content and they are wildly in love. But is that enough to sustain them as they raise a family of their own.
