The Wrong Woman (1915)
Arthur Dane, whose father owns a sanitarium in India, has just returned to India from London. He manifests his love for Marion Ora, a nurse, who believes in him until she catches him in a compromising position with Ivy Fairfax, daughter of a patient in the sanitarium. Dane has learned that Ivy is the niece of Sir Marcus Richardson of England and is to be his sole heir. Despite the fact that Dane assures Marion that he is only trifling with Ivy, he marries the latter. Subsequently, Dane and his bride embark for London with Marion, whom Ivy has invited to go with them. There is a terrible storm at sea, during which the ship catches fire. The three get onto a raft and are washed ashore on Desert Island. In an exhausted condition, Ivy lies down on the beach and Dane, seizing the chance, removes the locket containing a photograph of Ivy's mother, since deceased, and Sir Marcus, from her neck. He tells Marion that Ivy is dead and proposes that she become Ivy Fairfax. A ship is hailed and they board it, leaving Ivy on the island. At Sir Marcus's home Marion is received with honor. She immediately endears herself to Sir Marcus. Allen Mostyn, a paleontologist, acquainted with Sir Marcus, becomes enamored of Marion and his affection is reciprocated. While on a cruise, Mostyn lands on Desert Island and finds Ivy, almost insane from hunger and loneliness. He reassures her, and she consents to return to England with him. She regains her memory and when presented by Mostyn at Sir Marcus's home, demands that she be recognized as the real Ivy Fairfax. She is not taken seriously, and Marion, secretly pitying her as she really believed she was dead, will not give her any encouragement. Dane, having been told of Ivy's appearance, plans to rob the Richardson home and make a getaway. He is shot dead by Mostyn while prowling through the house. With Dane out of the way, Marion makes a full confession. Mostyn realizes her sacrifice and forgives her, while Ivy is firmly installed in the Richardson home.
