La Stella, a dancer and dope fiend, had become infatuated with him, and he fell victim to her wiles. From her he learned the deadly morphine habit and after that his downward career was rapid. While under the influence of dope, he gave a child the wrong medicine, with fatal results. His career ruined, he had gone to an isolated cabin and after a long struggle conquered the drug habit. Dalton resolves that he must atone for the life he had taken and goes to Moloki Island to take charge of the leper colony there.
