After Zaidee dies, Babette goes to live with Ezra, but fearful that his second wife will learn of his less-than-upright past, he takes her in as his ward and forbids her to mention their real relationship.

On the eve of her wedding to a man she does not love, young Felicite (Marguerite Clark) stumbles upon a diary written by one of her ancestors.

Young Irish girl, Lady Eileen, believes the words of a cobbler who predicts she will see her future husband's face if she looks into the water of a well. Sure enough, Stanley Churchill happens by as she is gazing into the water. They fall in love, however, Stanley has a twin brother, George, who decides to trick the girl by posing as his brother. They are married, but Eileen learns the truth and runs away, with George in hot pursuit riding his horse. Mysterious sources trip the horse and George's fall is fatal, leaving Eileen free to marry Stanley.
