Dora does not love the Count and does not wish to marry him, but her mother desires her to have the title and insists on the match taking place. Dora, in order to avoid the loveless union, decides to run away. Morrison arrives at Elmville, the nearest railroad stop to Iviswold. and starts out for Iviswold on horseback. Night approaching and a storm coming up, he stops at the Mountain Inn for the night. It is at this inn that Count Luigi has planned and executed many crimes with the assistance of Smiley, the rascally innkeeper. Morrison, in ignorance of the true character of the place, gets a room, and prepares for dinner. Dora, in escaping from her home, is thrown from her horse and is forced to stay for the night at the Mountain Inn. Dora and Morrison are in the dining room together at dinner. The Count, who is watching from a corner, comes to Dora and tries to force her to return. She breaks off the match and when he persists in his attitude Morrison steps in. A fight follows, in which the Count is beaten. During the struggle the necklace falls to the floor and Smiley sees it. Later he tells the Count. Morrison, fearing for the safety of the necklace turns it over to Dora, unaware of her identity, and asks her to keep it for him until morning. In the night Morrison is attacked by Smiley and the Count and is thrown cellar. Failing to find the necklace in his possession they try to gain entrance to Dora's room, for they suspect her of having it. In the meantime Dora's mother has discovered her daughter's absence and telephones Douglas Kent, who starts out at once for Iviswold. While the conspirators try to get in her door, which is barricaded, Dora rushes to the window and cries for help. Kent in his auto, on the way to Iviswold, hears the cry and he and the chauffeur rush into the hotel in time to overcome Smiley and the Count as they are breaking into Dora's room. Morrison is released from the cellar and he and Dora discover each other's identity. Kent thinks the necklace may be a wedding present after all and gives it to Dora.
