Leading man Norman Foster is dashing as a veteran of the Union army now trying to start over as a school teacher. Though many in Indiana resent him for being a Yankee, he manages to find an ally in the beautiful Charlotte Henry, who he falls in love with. But the hostility against Foster escalates, led by the town good old boy Fred Kohler. Boiling to a feverish climax, Hoosier Schoolmaster is an explosion of passion and drama that will captivate viewers.
