- John Davis, first mate of the brig "Gifford," is seen bidding his wife and infant a tearful adieu on the eve of the sailing of his ship. Caught in a terrible storm in the Pacific Ocean, the vessel is wrecked and all on board have been drowned, at least so the newspapers chronicled. What a blow to the young wife, waiting for her dear one's return. Although the evidence was apparently conclusive, she could not reconcile herself to the fact that her husband had gone from her forever; something in her heart tells that he still lives, and in truth, for we see the poor shipwrecked mariner cast up by the seething sea on to a desert island in the Western Ocean. Here he spent seven long, weary years, worse off that De Foe's famous hero, "Robinson Crusoe," for he at least enjoyed the companionship of "Friday," but Davis was all alone. Now and then a distant sail, like a tantalizing phantom, would come into view and fade away again from sight, being too far off to see his signals of distress. His only solace was the picture in a locket of her who was waiting, waiting, ever hopeful of his return; praying as, indeed, was he also, their prayers ascending at the same time to the Father Almighty, through whose Grace and Mercy they were both imbued with hope, for although she finds her lot arduous, the care of a child being an exacting responsibility, she has repeatedly rejected the suit of Tom Foster, a good fellow, who would care for her and her little one. But no, that intuition tells her John will return, although it seems at times she hopes in vain. However, John's prayers are at last answered, and a boat is sent from a passing ship to his rescue. Returning home unannounced, the sight that greets him freezes his blood, for there he sees his wife and Foster walking through the garden accompanied by the child. He at once concludes that he has been forgotten and his place taken by his friend. His soul is at first filled with revenge and he is about to strike Foster down, but no, she is happy. She thinks him dead, and why not let it be so? This would be the most kindly, so he slinks hack into the foliage, intending to go away forever. They pass into the house, leaving the little one playing on the lawn. He cannot resist folding his child to his heart. From her he learns the truth as the mother returns from the house, and two faithful souls are "once more united never to part."

Constant companions, they hold for each other a regard beyond their understanding. Ten years roll by, and the boy, now a young man, with a ring approaches the girl and the sweethearts of childhood now renew their vows. They are both very happy until fate interferes, it seems, to test the girl's sincerity. Bill while strolling on the shore, which to him since the betrothal is a Utopia, espies a raft with an object on it that looks like a human being, far out at sea. Dashing into the surf, he swims to the raft and finds the almost exhausted form of a fisherman lying prone upon it. Pushing the raft to the shore, he, with the aid of others, revives the man, who is a stranger to them all, having put out from a far distant shore. Bill and Joe, the stranger, become staunch friends, and through this Joe meets Mary. She is at once smitten with the stranger and cruelly casts Bill aside for him. Joe, of course, knowing nothing of Bill's love for Mary, reciprocates her affection until he learns the truth. The horror of the situation is vivid. Here he finds himself the successful rival of the man to whom he owes his life. No, it cannot be, and so repulsing the impetuous Mary he rushes from the place, but not before Bill has seen enough to make him believe Joe has proved himself an ingrate. Joe makes a strenuous effort to reject Mary's advances, but she is persistent. Finally managing to elude her, he sends her the following note: "Mary, Bill saved my life. I will not rob him of his love. I see the raft on the shore. I shall go back to the sea on it. If the sea claims me it is my fate. Joe." She is amazed at this and rushes madly to the shore in view of staying his determination. In the meantime, Bill overtakes Joe at the shore, and ignorant of his purpose, with a blow sends him into the sea, never to return. At this moment Mary rushes up, she, of course, not aware of Joe's fate and shows Bill the note. He is driven mad upon learning that his deed was entirely unnecessary, so bidding Mary to wait, he wanders out, out into the sea with an insane idea of recovering his victim.

- Mrs. Randall is strongly addicted to the reading of cheap novels, so much so that she has little time for anything in the nature of domestic duties. The care of her ten-year-old girl child is especially odious. Living in their seashore cottage, the little one begs her mamma to take her to the beach, but mamma petulantly tells the child not to bother her. The father enters at this moment, and more to shame the mother than anything else, takes the child for a stroll on the beach. They have hardly departed when the minister calls, and Mrs. Randall sets about to do her utmost to entertain him. While on the beach, Mr. Randall meets a very fascinating and flirtatious young lady, and in a spirit of daring reciprocates her attention. The poor child is now left to its own devices to amuse itself. So, neglected, she wanders across the strand to a distant quiet bay. This portion of the resort is entirely deserted and the child mounts a rock far inland on which she sits to rest. The journey has fatigued her, and overcome by drowsiness she does off to sleep. Meanwhile, her carelessly indifferent parents are pursuing the bent of their own inclinations unmindful of what danger their child may be in. Some time has elapsed, and the tide turning, we find the rock on which the child sleeps completely surrounded by water with it still rising until it reaches her, waking her up. There she is marooned on the rock, with no help in sight. Her protracted absence arouses alarm and a search is started, but in vain, until a life-saver strolling this distant beach hears a feeble cry. Looking in the direction from whence it came he espies a small dark object far out from land. This proves to be the child's head which now alone remains above the surface. He swims to her rescue, and carries her to her distracted parents, who have by this time been taught a bitter lesson as to what their careless indifference resulted in.
