Dora is the daughter of one of the two bosses of David in the Common's, and he met her in her home in a date Mr Spenlow invited him. Immediately after this first meeting David fallen in love with her and was always expecting for a new invitation for the Spenlow's home, that happen in the birthday of young Dora, he bought her a bouquet of flowers thinking that now she would know his feelings. That day all the Spenlows friends went to spent the day at the country that day was the first in which David flirted with Dora. She was all the day paying more attention to other man that him and David was jealous, but Julia Mills the best friend of Dora notice it and treated to arrange it. There were other occassions where Miss Mills had to help them: when they started their relations she had to be the mediator between their letters and she managed their dates in her own home in order not to be discovered by Mr Spenlow or by Jean Murdstone the woman who had to stay all times besides Dora as her "reliable friend" (and who, we have to remember, hated David since his childhood). That was what finally happened, Miss Murdstone discovered a David's letter in the mouth of Jipp, the little dog of Dora who was all times growling David.

          When Miss Murdstones revealed David's intentions for Dora, she related all she knew Mr Spenlow, and him, angry with David forbidden him continue seeing Dora; but when all is a black  future for both Mr Spenlow died in an accident without saying nothing about that conversation to Dora.

          Dora gets shocked and she goes to the house of a pair of sisters of her father with who she hadn't relations in all her life, and while a time doesn't want to see David and when she hears his name she cries,but he insisted and wrote a letter together his aunt for the ones of Dora in which demands a formal date to introduce himself to their.

          When they become formally engaged, and after a period of time, they got married, and they funded a very candid family. They suffered lots of disliking situations in wich they are the victim always, as when their servants are thiefs.

          There were times in which David tried to transform Dora in a good housekeeper but it results impossible.

          Then came the the sad days of dora's sickness, she felt weak, and she couldn't run so much as in her best days. Everybody notice her prostration and they became worried about her health, David, aunt Betsey, Agnes... all them try to do her life more easy.

 The day she would die, at the same time Dora is speaking with Agnes (who had substituded Julia Mills in her heart since she had gone to thre India) in her room, Jipp caressed the hand of David and died... minutes later in Dora's room she died in the Agnes' arms. Agnes went down and looking David indicates the heaven with one finger...
