In a distant village he enters the first likely-looking house and proceeds to rob it. He is interrupted by the entrance of a girl, who does not see the pistol with which he covers her. Realizing that she is blind, Abbott replaces her money in the desk drawer which he has opened with a skeleton key. She becomes aware of his presence and he is forced to explain, so he says he has come to read the gas meter. Thus he gets away, believing himself unsuspected, but the girl finds his keys in the door and realizes that he is a thief. He returns and asks her for employment, for she lives alone and needs help. Redeemed through honest labor, he is happy in his love for her when the detectives discover him and take him away. In a great emotional scene, whose power moves to tears the callous bloodhounds of the law, he bids her farewell, pretending that he is going away on business. After serving his sentence he returns and confesses to the girl his true character. But she tells him that she knew it all the while, and lays her head upon his breast.
