Synopsis

Young Mary Lawton bids farewell to her father, Mark Lawton, and his business partner, John Adams, to whom she is engaged, and leaves the cattle plains of Arizona to study art in New York. After a time, John visits Mary unexpectedly and discovers to his sorrow that she has forgotten him in the convivial whirl of her new life. Upon his return to Arizona, he learns that Mark has died, and in his grief and disappointment, he sets fire to the house he built for Mary. Still in New York, Mary visits sculptor Trovio Valdez and is about to surrender to his advances when she sees his bronze statue of John. Realizing her love for her old sweetheart, she abandons her Bohemian friends and accepts a position as a governess with oil magnate Frank Marsh. Frank wants John's oil-rich lands but offers to give up his claim if Mary will be his wife. She agrees, but when Frank realizes that her heart belongs to John, he rides out of their lives, and they finally unite.
