Being bored to extinction, she goes for a stroll through the woods and accidentally meets Mr. Felix Grim, a young artist from the city, who is occupying his friend's lodge. Felix takes Helen to his lodge and having fallen in love with her, immediately proposes. She rejects him but accepts a portrait from him as a parting gift. Upon her return to her lodge, she finds through a note, that Dr. Toms has left the city. Very much elated over the fact, she and her mother plan to return at once. She dispatches a note to Felix. Snowie, a criminal, who was sentenced to Sing Sing by Helen's father, escapes. He returns to his gang and vows vengeance, not on Helen's father, but on Helen. Helen and her mother arrive home, but are spied upon by the gang, who are awaiting the proper moment to strike. Felix, broken hearted at being spurned, decides to return. Several nights later, Helen's mother and father leave the house. Helen is left alone with the exception of the butler. Snowie being informed of this fact, orders his men to abduct her. In the meantime, Helen falls asleep, dreams of Felix and runs to her room to look at the portrait he gave her. Turning the canvas over, she finds his telephone number. Just for a lark she 'phones him and invites him over. Felix hurries to call. While awaiting Felix's arrival, the gang ring the bell and strangle the butler. Helen sees what has happened and is distraught, but realizes that Felix is coming and will save her. She writes a note and places it under the canvas and then rushes to her room and locks herself in. The gang enter the house and begin to loot the place when the bell rings. They open the door, pounce upon Felix and force him to make Helen open her door by speaking to her. She does so. Snowie rushes into the room and Felix is thrown back among the gang. Felix manages to escape the gang and through the window enters Helen's room where he struggles with Snowie. Snowie's revolver is discharged. The shot brings the police and the gang is captured. Helen's mother and father return and find their daughter safe and soon after announce her engagement.
