Set at the Tower of London, Colonel Fairfax is wrongly accused of sorcery and sentenced to death within the hour. Sgt Meryll and Fairfax hatches a plan to avoid letting his estate fall into the hands of his scheming cousin by secretly marrying Elsie Maynard, a strolling singer. She agrees to be blindfolded during the ceremony and expects to be a wealthy widow upon Fairfax's imminent demise. However, Fairfax miraculously escapes his fate dressed as a Yeoman of the Guard only to actually fall in love with Elsie. In the end, Jack Point, Elise's companion, is heartbroken and falls insensible at their feet after their wedding.
