After shutting out the lights, Red goes after his man and gets him down. The police enter and Red is sent to jail. Up to this time Sal had been nothing more than a girl of the street, but Red's imprisonment changes her attitude toward life and she becomes interested in settlement work, joining herself to the Salvation Army. The young fellow who had caused Red's arrest, meets her in this guise one day. This time his admiration is genuine, and he wants her to marry and live a life of luxury with him. Sal, loyal to Red, refuses, for she has just received a letter from him telling her that he is dying, and begging her to get him a release so that he may die at home. She is unsuccessful throughout. Her wealthy admirer at last, taking pity on her and admiring her loyalty to Red, secures her the pardon without her knowing it. Sometime later, Sal goes into a saloon in the slums, where she is accosted by a drunken "hanger-on." Red, just back from the prison, is searching for his old cronies in their old haunt. He enters the saloon, sees Sal, and rushes to her rescue, falling, after the first assault to the ground, senseless. Sal, kneeling on the barroom floor, takes his head in her lap as he breathes his last. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
