Girl from God's Country

Jim Holden, a young doctor practicing in Alaska, eagerly awaits the arrival of his new nurse, Anne Webster. All of his previous nurses have been driven home within a few weeks by the rigors of the Alaskan winter, the primitive conditions and the surly disposition of their employer. Anne appears to be no exception, for after her first glimpse of her desolate new surroundings, she states that she will be returning home the next morning. Before she leaves, however, she witnesses Jim and his Eskimo assistant Joe deliver Mrs. Bearfat Tillicoot's baby by a Caeserian section. Anne is deeply impressed by Jim's dedication as he use his own blood to give Mrs. Tillicoot a life-saving transfusion. That night, Joe's wife Koda pleads with Anne to stay, but she remains firm in her resolve, even though she is again impressed by Jim's kindness to his patients.
