Before passing away she gives Kara the key to the secret burial vaults and treasure chamber. Kara vows to wreak a belated vengeance on the head of the man who sullied his family's honor. He takes with him enough treasures to carry out his purpose, goes to Cairo where he is received as a royal prince, and finds Lord Roane. With Oriental cunning he sees that he can best pierce his enemy to the heart through the nobleman's beautiful granddaughter, Lady Aneth. He asks her hand in marriage, is refused, but still clings to his purpose. Enticing the girl's father to gamble, he ruins him, then offers to restore the winnings if the Englishman will give his consent. The nobleman puts him off, but the prince goes direct to the girl, and threatens her father with ruin unless she agrees to marry him, intending to inveigle her into a mock marriage. To save her father from ruin and disgrace she consents to marry Kara at his palace that night. Winston Bey, her English lover, rescues her before she falls into the Egyptian clutches and hurries her to his yacht and sends her up the Nile. Kara, whose plans for a mock wedding have been completed, hears of her escape, leaves Cairo and at the head of a band of desert robbers attacks, the vessel and makes Lady Aneth a prisoner. The robber chief refuses to deliver her to Kara until he has been paid. The prince hastens to the secret chamber for gold and Viscount Cousinor, Aneth's father, follows him there. A terrific struggle follows. The Englishman overpowers his antagonist, locks the stone door upon the Egyptian and leaves him to perish in the tomb of his ancestors. As the viscount is leaving the tomb he is killed by a slave girl who mistakes him for Kara. Thus is the house of Kara avenged. In the meantime the British authorities hear of the attack on the yacht, and dispatch a column of troops to the scene. Upon their approach the robbers flee and Lady Aneth is restored to her lover's arms. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
