One by one, Grace's brothers and sisters left for work in the city, leaving Grace alone to support her parents in the farmhouse.  Grace was a brave and good girl, once a ship crashed into the rocks about a mile away due to a storm. All the people on the ship drowned in the sea, but 9 people managed to stay by holding on to an oar.  They stayed like that for the night. When Grace saw this in the morning, she asked her father to save them.  The father says that he cannot sail the boat alone in this storm, so despite her mother's disapproval, Grace is willing to sail with her father herself, facing the stormy waves, Grace and her father.  Reached to Chanan and with the help of two sailors there will be able to save these people and bring them to the lighthouse.  It didn't end there, after rescuing these people, Grace took care of them until they recovered. When these men went back to their city, they made the world know about the bravery of Grace and her father, then they were rewarded. And he became famous all over the world. And money was raised to improve the lives of the people working at the lighthouse. Grace died at the age of twenty-seven, but is still remembered for her bravery.
