Plot: Derrick Van Beekman and Stephanie Maynard are betrothed merely to oblige their families. They do not love each other and Stephanie is in love with George Harnash, who has Derrick abducted on his wedding eve and put aboard a boat bound for the South Seas. Stephanie feels that Harnash is at the bottom of the disappearance and refuses to marry him until Derrick has been found. Derrick has been put ashore on a small island which he finds tenanted by the survivors of a Holland ship, so that he is among people of his own blood. He falls in love with Truda, but he breaks a sacred law and is condemned to death by starvation. Truda determines to share his fate, but the rescue party arrives in the nick of time.
