Plot

As described in a film magazine,[4] Frank Armour (Sills), scion of British aristocracy and of the Hudson's Bay Company, hears from his former sweetheart of her marriage to a rival. In revenge and to ridicule his family, he marries an Indian princess Lali (Scott). Sending her to his family home in England, he then plunges into the Canadian wilderness and into a life of dissolution. Through the kindness of the Armour family and especially through the patience and perseverance of Frank's brother Richard (Dexter), Lili is transformed into a beautiful and charming society woman. Lali's happiness receives a blow when Frank's former sweetheart tells her the reason that he had married her. Lali's loyalty and love for Frank remain steadfast through the years until his redemption and return to the family home to find their boy.
