At a mountain camp "roughing it," Reynolds meets Madge, a pretty wholesome, outdoor girl, who, not knowing he is married, falls in love with him. Meanwhile in the city, Ida, his wife, who is a frivolous social butterfly, is carrying on a flirtation with Jacques Albert, an artist engaged in painting her portrait. She hides his love letters in her completed portrait. While auto riding with him a terrible accident occurs and she is killed. Reynolds is at once called home. Madge, heartbroken to learn that Reynolds is married, becomes ill and her father takes her to the city for a change. Jacques, nearly frantic with fear that Reynolds will find his letters, visits Madge whose father is his uncle. He confesses all and begs her to secure the letters for him. Madge fights a heroic battle with herself realizing it she tells Reynolds of his wife's indiscretions, it will destroy his faith in her memory enhancing her own chances of finding happiness as his wife. She finally decides to spare him. She fails to find the letters in the portrait and is confronted by Reynolds. He surmises the reason for her presence and quietly shows her the letters, which he has already found. Comprehending Madge's sacrifice for his sake, he is overwhelmed by her nobleness and, taking the girl in his arms, asks her to become his wife. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
