The mother, knowing that propinquity often leads to love, arranged for her daughter to take a long ocean trip, chaperoned by the young nobleman's mother. In this way the count and the girl would have many hours of each other's society and the girl's mother felt sure that she would not long refuse the honor of becoming a countess. The girl was also wooed by a wealthy young American, of whom the family disapproved because of his lack of ancestry. He grieved over their separation, and later was completely heartbroken when news reached him that the ship had been lost and the girl he loved was reported among the missing. Still he could not believe that she was dead, and dropping all business embarked on his yacht, vowing that he would search the whole world if necessary to find her. The girl drifted to the shore of an island inhabited by a savage tribe. They would have killed her, but her miraculous escape from the attack of a venomous snake convinced them that she bore a charmed life and instead of destroying her, they worshiped her as a goddess. The young American in the meantime had carried his search into many strange lands and all on board except himself were convinced that the hunt was a fruitless one. He refused to turn back, however, and finally his boat reached the little island where his sweetheart was a queen and a prisoner. She was rescued after a lively battle with the savages, and the couple sailed away to their home in America. The parents, in their joy at their daughter's return, withdrew their objections to the marriage, and the girl wedded the man who had braved many dangers to rescue her from her "Robinson Crusoe" existence on an island in the tropical seas.
