| Summary: | "Henry Shoesmith, Jr., a handsome islander, devotes his days to singing and his nights to romance. He falls in love with Tito, a native girl who has been adopted by Slater, a trader, and when Slater and Tito leave the island, Henry gives up his idle ways and turns to storekeeping. Tito and Slater later return to the island, and the rough trader attempts to force her to marry him. Henry learns of this and abducts the willing girl, taking her to his mountain home. Slater later takes her back; Henry again rescues her. All ends well"--AFI catalog, 1921-1930. |
