Sunshine Harbor

Betty Hopkins, a hoydenish daughter of a southern eye specialist, refuses to marry Graves, her father's choice, and goes motor-boating with Billy Saunders, a city newspaper reporter; when the engine fails, they are forced to spend the night on the lake, and her indignant father assumes that the worst has occurred. Betty runs away to New York. There she achieves fame as a news writer, but while covering a spectacular chemical fire she is blinded by an explosion. Billy Saunders, returning from Havana, finds her in the hospital and proposes, but Betty declines because of her blindness; her father, however, performs a successful operation to restore her sight. Following a reconciliation between father and daughter, Hopkins consents to her marriage to Saunders.
