The scene is laid in England at a deserted estate called the Holly House, the mansion of Lord Sylvester. A young writer, Rolin, seeks the locality because of its beauty, and the air of mystery surrounding it. His interest is deepened by the fact that twenty years before Lord Sylvester, after spending his fortune in gambling and dissipation, ordered his wife from the place and later deserted it himself. Rolin arranges with the caretaker to see the musty but dignified library in which to write. He takes the history of Lord Sylvester for the basis of his novel. The story is unsatisfactory to him. One night a carriage comes by the lodge gate. Lady Sylvester, helplessly ill, is taken out and brought into the house. Rolin himself carries her up and deposited her in bed. A young woman with her is supposed to be her daughter. She is called Stephanie by Lady Sylvester, and to villagers she soon becomes known as Lady Stephanie. Rolin himself falls in the general misunderstanding, believes he Lady Stephanie, and finishes his novel on that hypothesis. He also falls in love with her and she with him. Lord Sylvester suddenly arrives at the inn. He is amazed to hear he has a duaghter, who, with her mother, is now at Holly House. He goes there, and for one brief hour revels in the delights of fatherhood, welcoming the girl who is said to be his daughter. Stephanie has promised to give Rolin a definite answer to his love the next day, but first she believes the right to remove the mistaken impression that she is Lord Sylvester's daughter. She finds Lord Sylvester in the library and tells him the truth that she is only the companion of Lady Sylvester. Sylvester turns Stephanie out. She goes to the house of the gardener. In the morning Rolin visits her and after hearing her story tells her that he loves her just the same and that to him she will always be "my Lady Stephanie." - Moving Picture World, August 12, 1916
