Ludwig Von Baer, a naturalist, is Kemper's life-long friend. Kemper has long planned that his friend and Mary shall marry. Von Baer arrives in Africa to study wild animal life in the jungle. En route the naturalist stops at the farm of his old friend. Kemper is overjoyed, and presents Mary, at the same time making plain to her that Von Baer is the man whom he has chosen for her husband. Mary loses no time in acquainting young Durke with her father's plans. Later, Von Baer sees that Mary loves Durke, and continues on his way into the jungle. Five years elapse. John and Mary have married, and have a boy and a home of their own. Again Von Baer visits the Kemper farm and learns of Mary's marriage. Accompanied by Paul Kemper, as a guide, he sets out to visit the young couple. Mary's welcome is somewhat effusive. John witnesses the greeting, and permits his jealousy to get the better of his judgment. A scene results, and John takes his gun and stalks into the jungle. Von Baer and Paul bid Mary good-bye and return to the Kemper farm. Mary, angry at her husband, leaves a note for him, takes their child, and follows Von Baer and Paul. His anger cooled, John returns home, finds the note, and hastens after his wife and child. Mary loses her way, and a prowling leopard stampedes her horse. Arriving at the Kemper farm, John fails to find his wife and child. Calling in neighboring settlers he shows them her note and the four men start out to search for the lost ones. Von Baer finds Mary and her child, rescues them from a lion, and brings them back safely to the house. John, ashamed of his suspicions, expresses his gratitude, apologizes to the innocent naturalist, and the story ends happily. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
