As described in a film magazine,[3] Jack Halliday discovers Nancy, a poor young mountain woman, being mistreated by her foster parents, Mr. and Mrs. Kelly. He takes her to the city where she blossoms into a society bud. However, Nancy returns to her mountain hut because she does not want to ruin his prospects socially by marrying him.
