Two sisters learn their parents never married, so English law hands their father's fortune to an uncle. The younger takes a false name and marries the cousin who holds it to steal it back, then loses everything and is saved by a sailor.

Mr. Vanstone's daughters are Nobody's Children; and the law leaves them helpless at their uncle's mercy.
