After traveling from place to place for a few years, trying to find some location in which he might be happy, he settles in Lariat Hollow, a mining town. He soon falls in love with a dance-hall woman named Anne. This incites the jealousy of Larkin, the town's political boss. To break George Blake, Larkin nominates him for mayor, purposing to have him defeated. Anne suspects the plot and tries to influence Blake to refuse the nomination, but Blake has given his word to enter the contest and goes in to win. Lucy writes to her father that she wishes to remain in the convent and become a nun; he gives his consent. Now with every Eastern tie severed, he asks Anne to marry him. She accepts, but says they will wait until after the election, fearing to ruin what political chances he might have by an alliance with a dance-hall woman. The election occurs and Larkin's confederates defeat Blake. On election night, Lucy arrives unexpectedly from the convent, having decided that she hasn't "the calling" after all. In his house of trouble, Blake is glad to have her back. Anne wanders out alone through the autumn forest, living through her "Gethsemane." She returns to Blake's cabin and tells him: "Lucy, your daughter, has the first claim on you. You must take her back East, away from me to the surroundings in which she belongs." Anne takes the girl in her arms and kisses her, then turns to Blake, bids him a last farewell, and goes into the forest alone. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
