 Miss Hutchinson is young moun- taineer girl who has chance 10 live in the outside world for a time, and returns with ambitions to im- prove the conditions of the native people. In this she is opposed by a cruel, bitter father, played by Rob- ert Barrat.
 Time and time again, she and her young sister, played by Marcia Mae Jones, cover under the lash of their fathers whip. They live in constant fear of his terrible anger, and his threats to marry them off to ts.e highest bidder.
 There comes time when she has to kill her parent in order to save her own life. What follows from this point makes for exciting screen fare.

It was for love of this ravishlng red-head that, ln 1926, Carol renounced his right of suc- cession to the throne. and left the way open for his son by hls legal wife, the former Princess Helen of Greece. to become king.
 Yet, faced by a similar situation involving his brother Nicholas. who refused to renounce his roc nance with a commoner.
