They are overtaken by a terrific storm and compelled to take refuge in the home of Sir Jasper Thnrndike, a middle-aged bachelor.

Sir Jasper is an easy prey to the girl, Dorothy, and she is also attracted to him, and presents -him with a sprig of rosemary, "for remembrance." Dorothy's father and mother have followed her through the storm and also take refuge with Sir Jasper. They discover their runaway daughter and her lover and all is forgiven and the journey is continued to London, where the marriage is to take place. Retainded of his age and the girl's youth.
