Despite this, Hugh is determined to prove himself and make a name for himself in the world. He eventually becomes a successful journalist and travels to Europe, where he meets and falls in love with a beautiful woman named Hilda Burgoyne. However, their relationship is complicated by the fact that Hilda is engaged to another man.
