He was happy there; he had made his living out of the sea, which was visible from his door, and the last of his thoughts was he was likely to be evicted while life remained to him. His pretty daughter, Bess, who was his helper, mended his nets, etc., was in the same way of thinking as regarded the tenure of possession of the shack. But the march of improvement could not be withstood, so it fell that one day, a new dock was projected and Morgan was given notice of ejection. He, refusing to go, means were taken to force him out. There was a quarrel and the manager of the steamship company was wounded. Of course, Tom Moore was arrested. Bess intervened in behalf of her father and made such a pretty and convincing speech to the manager, that the latter, wounded though he was, readily forgave Tom, fell in love with the daughter, and left the old man in the undisturbed possession of his home. The dock company decided to lengthen an existing dock instead of building a new one. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
