Years afterwards, in America, his wife, for he has married, advertises for a French maid, and the girl whom her husband had wronged years before answers the ad. and secures the position. The man can say nothing, as he does not want his wife to know the black chapter in his past. Some time later the doctor dies suddenly, and there is a great mystery, as no cause is apparent. A detective is called, and he is suspicious of the maid. it afterward turns out that she had killed him by putting germs in some fruit that he had eaten for breakfast.
