The Grant and Morey families have been enemies for generations. Beth Grant and Jack Morey marry secretly, and when the expected result of marriage is near at hand, decide to leave home rather than betray their secret. Virginia Grant overhears their plans to leave, and thinking Morey has dishonored her sister, tells Harry Grant, who proclaims vengeance upon Morey. Silas Lacey, a rich planter, asks of Harry Grant consent to Marry his sister, Virginia Lacey, not being of the proper social strata. Grant is indignant in his refusal and throws Lacey bodily from the house. Lacey kills Grant, but everybody suspects Jack Morey, who has fled when his secret wife gives birth to a child and dies. Only Jeff, an old slave of Lacey's knows that Lacey is the murderer of Harry Grant. Virginia, in the belief that Beth's child is illegitimate, conceals the fact of its birth and secretly leaves it upon Jeff's doorstep
