Synopsis
Opal, a young girl who knows nothing of her antecedents, falls in love with G. D. Stanley, the strange young man who is her closest neighbor in the Canadian wilderness. One day Opal is informed that she is really the princess of a small country and must return to her native land to marry the neighboring king in order to save her people from invasion. Opal decides to sacrifice the love that she bears for Stanley, but before departing, she spends one hour alone in his cabin. On the eve of her marriage to the dissolute king, it is found that Stanley is really Stanlai, the heir apparent to the throne. When the drunken king attempts to attack Opal in her boudoir, Stanlai kills him, thereby becoming the ruler of his country, and claims Opal as his queen.

Notes
Although no information has been located concerning a novel entitled One Hour by Elinor Glyn, she did write a novel entitled His Hour, published 1910 in London, which May have been the source for this film. Some scenes in the film were shot at Saranac Lake, NY and Jacksonville, FL according to a news item. Sources conflict concerning the basis for the story. While reviews and news items state that it was based on the book by Elinor Glyn, the synopsis included in the copyright descriptions says that the story was suggested by producer Harry Rapf.
