[2] As described in film magazine reviews,[3][4][5] Easter Hicks (Minter), a mountain girl, meets Clayton (Bowers), an engineer from the city, when she is on her way to market.

Easter is fascinated by the "furriner" (foreigner) from the city, and despite her crude dress and rough mannerisms, Clayton is equally taken with her.

"Pap" Hicks arrives to the wedding drunk, and when Clayton will not share a drink with him, he takes offence and threatens to shoot his future son-in-law.

Stricken with grief at the thought that he has killed his daughter, "Pap" swears to God that he will never drink again if only Easter should pull through.

The September 1920 edition of "Picture-Play" features a detailed fiction adaptation of the film, complete with several stills from the picture.
