Janice Studwell, a pretty Puritan maid, is beloved by Ralph Allyn. Ralph's suit is favored until by chance one day Janice's father catches Ralph indulging in a forbidden game of dice. Ralph is commanded to cease his attentions to the girl and is openly denounced in meeting on the Lord's day, and driven from the place of worship. He wanders disconsolately into the forest and almost bumps upon a band of marauding Pequots. In the meanwhile Janice has taken a restless child out of the meeting to a nearby spring. The Indians are upon her and Ralph saves her at the risk of his life. They then flee to the church, where there is a spirited defense against the Indian attack. The Pequots are finally repulsed and when it is all over, Ralph's sin is forgiven and he receives the hand of the fair Janice as a reward for his gallantry.
