In this little drama we see a sailor bidding his family a fond adieu, as he is about to start out on a trip across the sea. His good wife and ever faithful dog accompany him to the wharf, where they watch the final preparations for the journey. We then see them gazing fondly after him as he sails out through the bay, headed for foreign ports. When he is lost to view the wife returns with the dog to the cottage, where we see her busily engaged with her household duties, though longing for her husband and praying for his safe return. A few days elapse, and the dog strolls away from the cottage, and runs down to the seashore in the hope that he will see his master returning As he runs along he comes upon the body of the sailor, lying on the sand, where the waves have washed it after a terrific storm in which the boat was wrecked and all hands lost. The dog, with human intelligence, recognizes his master and takes his cap in his mouth and starts back to the cottage. When the sailor's wife sees what the dog holds in his mouth she realizes at once what has happened, and quickly follows the faithful animal back to the beach. When they come upon the spot where her husband's body lies, she can bear up no longer, but falls grief-stricken over the lifeless form.
