Janet Whitmore has suffered a great loss, and fearing for her future, she leaves all that is familiar, venturing into a snow storm. Dr. Howard Sterling is on his way home when he comes upon a woman in a snow drift and takes her to a hospital. Meanwhile Martha Spicer, elderly spinster, has taken up residence in the house left to her by her uncle and aunt. Finding herself in need of occupation, she takes an interest in taming one of the local boys who seem to run wild in the streets without supervision. Then Janet disappears without telling the doctor, who has grown quite fond of her, about her true identity. But the hand of Providence is about to bring these four souls together in a marvelous way.
