“N&S: John Thornton, Love Lessons,” Prologue
John Thornton has an eager mind, starved for intellectual stimulation--him having to quit his formal studies and leave school to support his family at the tender age of sixteen after his father died. And just such development of his intelligence was what John had in mind when he began studying the classics with retired vicar Mr. Richard Hale--who had recently moved North with his wife and daughter. But what John could not have foreseen was that just as his mind needs nourishment, so does his heart. And Mr. Hale’s proud, beautiful, kind, stubborn, and compassionate daughter Miss Margaret Hale will bring John Thornton’s untutored heart to full and vibrant life.
