暂无简介A party of Queen Bess's marauding soldiers take possession of the Fitzgerald Castle and expel the rightful owners. The invaders begin to make merry while the evicted family seeks shelter in a hermit's cave. Lady Peggy, however, is not permitted to leave with her family as the rioters insist that she remain and be the subject of their toasts. The resourceful young woman pretends to be agreeable and sits down to dinner with two of the soldiers, while the others conduct themselves riotously in the wine cellar. At an opportune moment Peggy rushes to her room and locking the door, proceeds to fasten a rope to the bed and throws the end out of the window. She succeeds in making a perilous descent to the ground and rides for help. The rioters follow in pursuit and locate the evicted family in the cave. Determined to be revenged on Peggy, the soldiers, now in a maudlin stupor from their libations, proceed to smoke out the refugees. Just as the desperate family is about to give up hope. Peggy arrives with assistance, but does not succeed in liberating her people until she has dispatched the heartless leader of the marauders in a duel.
