Synopsis

During the Dublin riots, four orphaned sisters live just outside the city. Their land has been bequeathed to a young American, Richard Taylor, who arrives in Ireland to inspect the property. The sisters are afraid that he plans to throw them off the land, so, at first, their relationship with Richard is cool. Then Richard saves Shamrock, one of the sisters, from British authorities who want to arrest her for taking part in a patriot's meeting. Richard himself is arrested, however, so Shamrock goes to the authorities to clear him of all guilt. Shamrock and Richard then realize that they are in love, and they make plans for an immediate wedding.
