Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Hoping to contribute to the Ingalls' family coffers, young Albert (Matthew Laborteaux) becomes an apprentice to old Isaac Singerman (John Bleifer), Walnut Grove's coffin maker. Before long, Albert is subjected to the taunts of his classmates, who maliciously label him a "Jew lover." As it turns out, even the most bigoted citizens of Walnut Grove could stand to learn a lesson from the positive example set by Isaac and his brethren.
