Bell is greatly worried, for he has a chart which locates a wonderful treasure chest. Before he can leave the town. Due appears and hires some fishermen to attack Bell and gain possession of the chart. They assault the old man and he is getting the worst of it when Captain Rood and his sweetheart, Ethel, come upon the scene and rout the sailors, taking the old man, who is badly injured, to Ethel's home. Later he dies and gives to them the chart and instructs them how to find the treasure. Due learns of this, and when Rood advertises for sailors to man his ship, he and the fisherman, who got the worst of the fight, apply for positions and are taken on by the unsuspecting Rood. Rood and Ethel are married and start out in search of the treasure. Just as they arrive in sight of the land. Due and his men are plotting to take possession of the ship, when the boatswain, who is a friend of Rood's, overhears them, warns Rood, and takes Ethel to a small boat. Rood, with the cook, who is also loyal, tries to reason with Due. Due orders his men to attack the captain, but he locks the door and escapes with his wife. They arrive on the island, discover the chest in a cave and return with it to the ship. Due, in the meantime, having discovered the escape of the captain, with his men man a small boat and go to the island, but are attacked by Indians, who kill all but Due. They row towards the ship. The cook, who has recovered from his blow, sees them approaching, fires a cannon and kills them. Later the captain, with his chest, arrives on the boat to the joy of all.
