He is a rough lad and thinks only of his day's toil, while she dreams of romance, which her husband, though he loves her, has failed utterly to supply. One day, a city man camping nearby sees the pretty young wife and talks of love to her; the lonely girl allows herself to drink in the words. The husband returns unexpectedly from a fishing trip, finds her with the young city man in the moonlight and, following them home unobserved, he sees the man kiss his wife. Enraged, he forces the city chap out on the sands to fight for his life, first tying his wife to a chair and locking her in so she cannot escape his wrath when he finished with the city man. Feeling that she is responsible whichever one kills the other, she upsets herself and her chair and overturns the table on which a lit lamp is placed, and sets the shack on fire. About to fight, the two met see the flames and rush back. The husband tries to get the city man to rescue his wife; the city man turns coward and flees, and the husband carries his wife to safety himself. Assured of her innocence of wrong, he resolves to make his wife's future more romantic. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
