Kenneth and Malena Paulton are honeymooning at a Grand Canyon
hotel but, despite her love for Ken, Malena cannot stand his caresses.
Ken attributes her attitude to his infirm arm, which he keeps in a sling.
He goes to Jack Moreland, a young minister who is spending his summer in
charge of a nearby boys' camp, for advice; he tells Ken to pray to God for
help.
Staying at the same hotel are Beth Tyrell and her Aunt
Harriett, who is a believer in the occult and in reincarnation. Beth
falls in love with Jack but turns down his proposal when she learns he is a
minister. A specialist examines Ken's arm and tells him it must be
operated on at once. Ken denounces Jack.
By coincidence all four are on the same train to Chicago when
it is involved in a wreck. Malena is trapped, and Beth, in a delirium, is
transported back in time to the England of the 17th century where the
characters reenact their past lives: Ken is a knight, Malena, a Gypsy
girl, and Jack, her lover of old. Awakening from her dream, Beth finds
herself in Jack's arms. Ken rescues Malena, who has lost all fear of
him. Happiness inures to both couples. |
