Initially reluctant, he soon gathers his confidence, and his performance is extremely well received by the audience.

Sur la montagne se dresse la ferme, le "nid de vautours", dont le propriétaire profite du mariage avec une femme séduisante et beaucoup plus jeune, ainsi que la contrebande, avec laquelle il aimerait un jour acheter la taverne du village. Une épine dans le flanc de l'un et de l'autre est le jeune gendarme : il veut mettre fin à ce mariage comme à la contrebande - d'abord parce qu'il aime la beauté de la montagne et, deuxièmement, il a besoin d'un succès professionnel pour être promu. Cependant la femme se sent de plus en plus mal à l'aise d'être utilisé par le gendarme comme un leurre contre son mari et par les passeurs, contre son mari, cependant, pour distraire le gendarme. Elle mobilise donc ses sentiments féminins contre les deux et les incite à régler au couteau. Le mari trouve la mort, le gendarme est arrêté.

The story takes place in colonial Africa, where Vivienne Segal (as Dawn), plays the part of a white girl who was kidnapped in infancy and is being brought up by a black native, played by Alice Gentle, as her own. Alice Gentle runs a canteen in the now German colonial settlement. Segal falls in love with Walter Woolf King, a British rubber planter who is now a prisoner of war. Noah Beery, who is the native black leader of the tribes in that region, is also in love with Segal and becomes extremely jealous when he heard of Segal's love for King. King, however, is sent back to Britain by the Germans for attempting to steal Segal, whom they believe is half black. Eventually, the British regain control of the territory and drive out the Germans. King returns to the colony. When the settlement experiences a drought, Beery attempts to incite the natives against Segal, claiming that their native God is angry because Segal has dared to love a white man. King is unable to save Segal because the colonial authorities refuse to act unless they have proof that Segal is one hundred percent white. Eventually Gentle confesses that she is not Segal's real mother and that her real (white) father confirms what she confessed is true and that her mother was white. King quickly brings the British troops just as the natives are about to sacrifice Segal. During the ceremony however, one of the virgin priestesses of the native God, revels that Beery has been lying about Segal. The God is not interested in Segal since she is pure white. Furthermore she reveals that Beery had violated her chastity and claims that their native God was angry because of this sacrilegious act. Beery is sacrificed to the anger of the natives and the drought quickly ends as rain pours down. In the end, Segal and King, happily reunited, sail back to England together.

As described in a film publication, Margaret "Peg" O'Connell (Taylor), according to her uncle's will, is to be educated in England under the supervision of her aunt, Mrs. Chichester (Lewis). Upon her arrival from Ireland, she is looked down upon by the Chichester household for her lack of culture, and she vows never to become a lady. She meets Jerry, a young man from a neighboring estate, who becomes her friend. Then she discovers that he is Sir Gerald Adair (Hamilton) and rebels at the deception he has been conducting. She also finds out that the only reason her aunt is keeping her is because of compensation from the will. Peg leaves to return home, but finds that she is in love with Gerald. Gerald follows her and proposes.
