His wife and daughter seventeen years later in England think frequently of the husband and father, whose life they believe was taken by savage natives in South Africa. Wayne, wandering in the jungle, becomes possessed of a strange power over wild animals. Captain Jones, a British sportsman, encounters the wild man and the photograph Jones took is recognized in England by Edith Wayne as that of her father. A rescue party is formed. Savages capture both Wayne and his daughter, Edith, who has returned to Africa. Knowing of Wayne's influence over beasts, the Chief determines to throw him into the wild animal pit. The girl is marked for a like fate. Captain Jones, who has led the party into Africa in search of Robert Wayne, discovers that Edith has been taken prisoner by the savages. With a party of English hunters he rushes to her rescue. They defeat the savages and arrive at the African village in time to witness the domination of Robert Wayne over jungle beasts.
