At the urging of Carlyle, she agrees to stay, but tries to avoid Peyton by turning off the lighthouse beacon. Concerned for the safety of the passing ships, Kate relights the beacon and Miss Summerville is forced to meet Peyton. When Philemon learns that Peyton and the nurse were once lovers, he demands her resignation, but Carlyle and Kate stoutly defend her honor. Touched by his devotion, Miss Summerville finally agrees to marry Carlyle.
