The coastwise steamer "Maid of the North" was about to leave for Montreal when Mr. Townsend, recognizing Patrick Boyd among the passengers, presented him to Elinor Marshall. They were both bound for Patrick's home, where Elinor was to pay a short visit to her school girl friend before proceeding to Montreal to become a nun. Her reception of Patrick was cool as she remembered the cloud under which he left home several years earlier. Patrick, it seemed, had refused to enter the church in accordance with his father's plan, and in the resulting quarrel, Mr. Boyd succumbed to a sudden stroke of heart failure. As the result of his older brother's accusations, Patrick left his home, an outcast, and was now returning after a severe attack of fever in Africa. In due time they were landed from the steamer, but owing to the dense fog the young couple found themselves in an entirely strange place. Nothing was left but to hunt for some habitation. That very night, the "Maid of the North" went down with all on board. Their search was soon rewarded but the house turned out to be one of mystery. It was fully provisioned and furnished, but, with the exception of a dog, no sign of life could be found. The mystery was added to when they entered the dining room and noticed the portrait of a beautiful woman affixed to the back of one of the chairs. Further search in the garden brought them to a grave, while beside it was another one, freshly dug, and finally they came upon an old gentleman sitting in the garden, but on addressing him they found, to their horror, that he was dead. Completely mystified, they buried the mysterious owner in the freshly dug grave, and set about finding some escape from their predicament. In the midst of this effort Patrick's fever returned, and the whole burden was thrown upon Elinor, and little by little she became cognizant of a new sympathy for her fellow exile, which ripened during his convalescence into mutual love. A rude chart, found in a desk, spurred them on to greater effort, but, in building a raft, Elinor fell into the water and though Patrick quickly sprang after her and brought her to shore, his strength was unequal to the tide, and he was quickly carried out to sea. In the meantime, the daughter of the mysterious owner (who was, in reality, a banished French nobleman) waited anxiously in France for news of her father. Finally she decided to visit the island, and her arrival there came just at the very moment to save Elinor from madness, through her loneliness. Elinor's story was soon told and the Princess cleared the mystery by telling of her parents' banishment. They were about to leave the island when Patrick, who had been rescued by fishermen, appeared on the scene, and all repaired to the Boyd home, where happiness over Patrick's and Elinor's escape from disaster quickly brought about a reconciliation.
