Often he plays to himself on his violin, little dreaming that each note is eagerly absorbed by the sightless girl across the hall as she awaits the home-coming of her slaving, worn-out mother from the factory. Time comes when the sightless girl must bear the added burden of the death of her mother. The musician and his mother come to her succor, and she is given a home. The musician now has a new source of inspiration and his upward climb is rapid. A wonderful symphony emanates from his busy pen, wholly inspired by the blind child's love. One day the musician sees in the newspaper an item in which the father of the blind girl's mother offers a reward for information concerning either of the two. He has repented of his action in sending away his only daughter for contracting an unapproved marriage and now offers his home to both. The musician's heart is torn by conflicting emotions. Finally duty prompts him to write the wealthy grandfather of the little blind girl, telling him all. The parting causes heart-aches, for the call of the musician's love has been answered by the heart of the blind girl. The wonderful symphony continues to grow and at last is given to the world, directed by its creator. In a box sits the blind girl and her grandfather. The musician on the verge of success asks the hand of the woman he loves and his dream is realized. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
