A snarling, grouchy lawyer named Caleb Mundy wishes to marry her, but she does not love him, and refuses. Mary falls in love with her father's hired man Jim Grace. Jed Conners makes his will, with Caleb Mundy as witness. He then hides the will and some money in a hollow tree. Conners, being very deaf, fails to hear a runaway horse one day, and as a result loses his life. Mary cannot find his will. This fact gives Mundy the idea that he can forge one successfully. In the forged will Mary is only given the wood lot. She marries Jim Grace and they go to live in a shanty on the wood lot. Mundy is conscience-stricken one night, and thinking he sees a ghost, runs, and falling over a cliff, is later found dead. Mary dreams that her father hid the will and some money in the hollow tree and she and Jim find them the next day. The original will bequeaths everything to Mary.
