Plot
As described in a film magazine,[4] Jack Halliday (Sutherland) discovers Nancy (Daniels), a poor young mountain woman, being mistreated by her foster parents, Mr. and Mrs. Kelly (Gordon and Lewis). 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.
