Plot Summary:Jim Strong, an English army officer, in charge of a British trading post in the jungle, lives with his daughter Nettie. Nettie and Dick Price, an official guide of the British army, are sweethearts. Dick goes into the interior with a party, and soon after his departure Strong is bitten by a poisonous snake and dies before help can reach him. Nettie sends word to Cape Town for relief, and Lieutenant Harry Reynolds hastens to the post. Two days later, in the jungle, the party of investors, led by Dick, enjoy themselves trapping game. During this excitement, one man injures an elephant, and the huge animal, enraged by the bullet wound, attacks the camp, completely destroying it and thus causing the party to start for the post. Meanwhile, Reynolds, who is an impostor, posing as an officer, has determined to take advantage of his being alone with Nettie. He tries to make love to her, but she repulses him, though unable to repress her fear of him. Finally he becomes angry. He grabs her and they struggle; she hits him with some heavy article, which staggers him, and gives her a chance to make her escape from the cabin into the jungle. Soon Harry loses track of Nettie, who has run up a path along the side of a hill. She enters a cave and confronts a wounded lion. Harry discovers her footprints and finds her. He pulls her out of the cave. From a distance, Dick sees Reynolds and Nettie struggling on the edge of a precipice. Leaving the party, he rides rapidly toward them. He cannot ascend the side of the cliff that they are on. So he throws a rope over a stump on the other side, pulls it taut, and swings over, hand over hand, to Nettie's aid. Nettie is saved, while it is discovered that Reynolds is an impostor and he meets his deserts.\n\nMoving Picture World, October 13, 1917
