Her father is a drunkard, and she has grown to hate drink like poison. She loves Jim Hardy, a miner, or rather, a trench digger, for he has not yet excavated any "pay dirt." One day Jim's partner, Scott, comes in, absolutely broke, and offers to trade his half interest in the mine for a week's supply of grub. Harmony readily agrees, in order to be partners with Jim. Later, Harmony sees Jim with a bottle of whiskey and tells him in no uncertain terms her frank opinion of his character. She then shows him the document making her his partner, and while he is rejoicing over his good fortune, tears it up, saying, "I wouldn't be partner with a drinker." Jim, remorseful, slings the bottle of whiskey away, and then tells Harmony that the claim would never be worth anything anyway, and that he is going to fold up his tents and move to a better paying location. Before going, he sets off a blast in the mine to destroy it. Just as the explosion occurs, Harmony runs into the mine to examine her property, and Jim, terror-stricken, follows. After their awakening, they are counting their bruises, when Harmony points to her head, saying that it hurts. Jim looks at it, and then stares with unbelieving eyes, for there, nestling on her golden hair, lies a small nugget of real gold. The mine pans out fine after that, and selfish Jim substitutes the name Hardy for Grant on the partnership papers. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
