Grown to manhood, John was given cause to remember his oath of vengeance. The Doones, led by Carver harried his estates and drove off his cattle And Carver began a relentless persecution of Lorna who loathed him. John met her in the forest and loved her. She saved his life when he was near to drowning; again, she saved him from the sin of murder when, at sight of Carver the memory of his wrongs made him draw his pistol. John, in turn, rescued her from Carver after the death of old Sir Ensor Doone left her defenseless, and took her to his home. Carver in revenge, informed the king's chancellor that Lorna was the heiress of the Earl of Lorne. Ordered to court, Lorna seemed lost forever to simple John. But fate led him to detect a conspiracy of the Doones against the king, and he was knighted. On the wedding day Carver attempted to kill John at the altar by firing through a window of the church. The bullet struck Lorna. Believing his darling dead, John executed a terrible vengeance upon Carver. But Lorna did not die, and years of happiness lay ahead for them.
