She sails back to England, but Blair is persistent and books travel on the same ship. The ship strikes a mine and is wrecked. Nance and Blair survive. Since both feel their days are numbered, they pledge their love for each other and declare themselves married in the sight of God. But then they are rescued, and Nance returns to her selfish ways. She decides to go ahead with her marriage to Chase. But at the altar, Nance confesses she is married to another in the eyes of God.
