After tramping around the country for some time they arrive one day, hungry and tired, at the farm of Priscilla Graves, a girl who is working her own farm. Priscilla is saving up to pay off the mortgage on the farm and Gerrard arrives just as she is putting away her savings. She refuses to give them anything to eat, as they look so terrible. Gerrard tells his friend of the refusal and also of the money and the two go to pick out a rock for a bed. Gerrard awakes in the night to find his friend gone. Guessing that he has gone to steal the money, Maxime follows and tries to prevent the robbery. Priscilla arrives just in time to capture Gerrard, the friend making his escape. As punishment Gerrard is sentenced to work out his imprisonment on the farm. He is very happy, as he has fallen in love with Priscilla, until one day he is accused of stealing a horse and without being given a chance to clear himself is beaten by some farmers. In the meantime his friend has gone home and told the Maxims of their son's plight. They come after him and find him in bed from his beating. Priscilla is, of course, astonished when she learns that Gerrard comes from a prominent family. When Priscilla next goes to her lawyer's to see about the mortgage she finds that it is paid. Gerrard then steps out and offers to be her prisoner for life. Does she accept? She does. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
