The crafty ship owner conspires with the mate to burn his vessel, promising to give him his daughter in return. But the girl loves the captain, who smuggles her on board the vessel. The scenes during the fire at sea are exciting and throughout the entire two reels there is plenty of action. The mate carries the girl from the burning brigantine, leaving the captain to die. But all turns out right in the end and justice triumphs. A good sea yarn. - The Moving Picture World, September 12, 1914
