The life savers take a fancy to him. Matty takes a trip in the breeches buoy, the life-saving appliance made to carry folks from a shipwreck to safety. Everyone likes Matty, excepting Ralph, who is the bully of the settlement. His attentions to Rose, Mattie's cousin, are obnoxious to her. Mattie tells Ralph what he thinks of him. One day Mattie sees a sailor lashed to a portion of a mast and calls the fishers and has the castaway brought ashore. The unfortunate, who is a handsome fellow, works with the fishers and it is not long before there is a romance between himself and Rose. Ralph grows jealous. Knowing it to be a prison offense to catch fish under the legal size, he takes a very small one and puts it in his rival's basket. The fishing inspector sees the small fish and is about to place the innocent man under arrest when Mattie, who has witnessed the deed, comes forward and accuses Ralph. The indignant fishers cast him from the community. The castaway marries Rose. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
