Next she is sent to Rochester's home, where she is governess to his young ward, Adele. Many times during the night she is disturbed by strange noises. Time goes on and she learns to love her young master. He. in turn, loves her and his proposal of marriage is accepted. It is the wedding eve before Jane comes face-to-face with the origin of the strange noises: it is a crazy woman. This woman is the wife of Rochester and has been held captive in the upper part of his home for years. The crazy wife attempts to burn Rochester to death. Jane saves him. Rochester confesses all, declaring that the woman she has seen was forced upon him by his parents. While Jane would forgive, she declares herself unable to stay longer in his household; that all is over between them. The night that Jane leaves, the mad wife again escapes from her room and again sets fire to the house. She rushes to the roof. Rochester attempts to save her. Jane, looking back, has seen the fire. Rushing up, she asks about her lover. The mad wife jumps from the roof and dies. Jane enters the burning house and manages to save Rochester. He is made blind. It is Jane's loving hands that guide him through life. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
