Leo Delaney and Florence Turner are in love. He gives his faithful dog, Jean to Florence as a gift. But Jean's father has lost all their savings and must return to sea. Leo goes to serve under him, and when the ship sinks, gives up his seat in the life boat to the old man. How can Jean bring the lovers together -- her frequent role in many of her appearances.
Jean appeared in more than a score of Vitagraph movies, usually under the direction of her owner, Laurence Trimble. Here, Trimble shoots the shore scenes to show off the beauty of the wind and his two leading ladies.
The knowing audience will recognize that this movie uses 'chapter heading' editing, in which the title tells the audience what the scene they are about to watch is about. It was falling out of favor at this time, but it fits the simple, old-fashioned sort of story that Jean usually graced.
