Plot Summary

John Farley pursues his particular hobby, biology, on the beautiful island of Catalina. He encounters the handsome Tessa and, though middle-aged, becomes a victim of her unconscious charms. She is loved by one of her own kind, Fernand, a sturdy young fisherman. She likes Fernand, but learns to love Farley. Fernand therefore relinquishes his claims. Farley, offered a professorship, leaves to accept it, promising to write and come back as soon as he can. He plunges into his new duties and neglects to write his island sweetheart, who pines away at his silence and absence. Farley, however, has not forgotten her and, when able to do so, he again visits the island and takes her into the safe-keeping of his arms. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis
