Synopsis
While lost in the woods, Marion Phillips finds refuge in Richard Flint's hunting lodge, and the two instantly fall in love. Richard proposes without realizing that his beloved is a wealthy heiress, a complication that jeopardizes their marriage when Marion insists upon living in lavish style. Embittered by the cutting remarks made by his wife's snobbish friends, Richard leaves Marion to seek his fortune in the mines. Marion follows but, growing bored, is soon persuaded by James Cardwell to go back to her glamorous friends in the city. Meanwhile, Richard strikes ore and determines to have his revenge upon Cardwell. Returning to New York, he crushes his opponent on Wall Street, obliterating his wife's wealth in the process. The barrier that existed between them thus resolved, the lovers are reconciled.

Notes
Sources conflict on various credits and cast names. One production news item credits Ouida Bergere with the writing, and one review lists E. Lord Corbett as a co-scenarist with R. Cecil Smith. The name of Eugene O'Brien's character is listed as Richard Harlow, Robert Harlowe and Ralph Barlow, as well as Richard Flint. Cyril Chadwick's character is called James Caldwell and Leroy Cadwell, in addition to James Cardwell. The production company attempted to shoot some scenes at Lake Saranac, NY, but had to relocate to the studio because of severe winter weather.
