Transcription
Plot
As described in a film magazine review,[5] saved with her mother from the wreck of an American ship off the Dutch East Indies, Faith Fitzhugh is left to the mercy of three villainous keepers of a Dutch lighthouse, grandfather, father, and son. After her mother dies, the now orphan Faith is raised by the lighthouse keepers. Greedy for her wealth, Piet and Jacob, the two elder keepers, plan to marry her off to Hans, the idiot son. Dick Wayne, an officer of the crew of an American ship repairing cable off the lighthouse, who previously had seen the young woman, comes to her rescue just prior to the marriage and saves her after a terrific battle with the trio and a fire and falling of the lighthouse.
