He is about to he given a long sentence when the little daughter of the Squire prevails upon her father to release the trespasser. The gypsy boy's sweetheart is very grateful and vows to be of aid to the little girl some day. Later the child goes on a long sea voyage and is shipwrecked upon a deserted coast. She is saved from the sea by the gypsy girl, who nurses her back to health. The gypsies protest against the presence of a hated outsider within their encampment and would drive the sick child into the wilderness, but the gypsy girl takes her under her protection and the two set out for the long walk through the forests to the father's home. They arrive there after many hardships and the gypsy girl is offered a home, which she is about to accept, but the memory of her gypsy sweetheart is too strong and, after a sad farewell, she once more faces the wilderness and journeys to the tents of her people.
