Down by the Sea (1914)
Fisherman's daughter Nell has promised to marry young fisherman Jim. A strong affection springs up between her and the child of some summer cottages, and when little Ruth is taken violent ill, Nell nurses her back to health. In gratitude, Ruth's older brother Dean Ronalds insists that Nell attend a select school in the city as his expense. She refuses, but Jim, thinking only of Nell's advantage, persuades her to accept. On completing the school course, Nell learns that her benefactor is in love with her, but she rejects his offer of marriage and returns to Jim. Her old sweetheart discovers that Nell really loves Ronalds, but that a mistaken sense of honor bids her remain faithful to her first affection. Jim goes to Ronalds and explains the sacrifice he is about to make, which Nell must never know. Then he tells her that he is going away to marry another woman, and leaves her to the man of her heart's choice.
