When his betrothed comes to inspect it, she doesn't like it; she throws Jack over and marries a wealthy suitor. This crushes Jack completely and he leaves town. Two years later a young girl, Katherine Wilson, visits the old people and hears the story of the deserted cottage. One day she gets into the house and manages to clean it thoroughly. A short time later, some tramps drop a match in the house that sets fire to it. Katherine sees the flames, and she and the old folks put out the fire.
