Forgetful of his station, Bryan falls madly in love with Lady Geraldine, who momentarily listens to his pleadings. Her acceptance of attentions from O'Rourke angers Bryan and he upbraids her for falseness. The nobleman draws his sword, but Bryan wrenches it from his hand and breaks it to pieces. Knowing that he cannot now remain, Bryan bids farewell to Lady Geraldine and sails for America. Bryan O'Sullivan, Irishman, becomes John Pierce, Colonist of Jamestown, Virginia. Years later Lady Geraldine suffers many vicissitudes; her castle is besieged by the Cromwellians and she with many others is sent to Jamestown to be sold to the colonists as wives. John Pierce is startled to see Lady Geraldine, but she fails to recognize him because of a heavy beard. Seeing that he is an honest man, she offers to become his wife. He takes her to his cottage and stepping into another room shaves off his beard, and begins to play the flute, which he so loved in days gone by. Lady Geraldine, who is about to end her life, hears the music and stepping to the door recognizes John Pierce, her husband, as Bryan O'Sullivan, her lover, and love claims its own.
