Captain Bruce has selected as the man to marry his daughter, Captain Dennison, who is employed by the old man. One day old man Bruce sees Mildred on the beach in earnest conversation with young Scott and orders the latter away. Dennison takes the fish nets of Captain Bruce and puts them into young Scott's boat. There is an entertainment that evening at the town hall and Mildred is there with her lover. Suddenly the sheriff comes in after being shown the nets in Scott's boat by Dennison, and places the victim under arrest. But George is admitted to bail and keeps faith with Mildred. Mrs. Scott plans to kidnap the girl, with the aid of her mother, and so straighten out the affair. They do this and are pursued in a boat by the irate Bruce and Dennison, but manage to escape and are wedded. They return as man and wife, but still the testy Bruce will not relent. However, one day old man Scott comes on him along the waterfront while he is musing and puts out his hand. At first it is refused, but Bruce finally extends the hand of fellowship and the old wound is healed. Written by
