The father of Bess is a broker, who is glad to welcome young Mordaunt as his daughter's fiancé. George Parker has been doing business with Mr. Darrell, and in the course of his relations with the father he would fain establish closer ones with the daughter, would she but encourage him. One day the father of Bess finds himself hopelessly in the power, in a financial way, of Parker. The amount involved is very large and means his utter financial ruin if not met. At this juncture Parker offers a solution; the hand of Bess can wipe out the obligation. Darrell resents, Bess sees the impending calamity, and consents to marry Parker to save her father. Realizing that his poverty was the cause of his undoing, Harold determinedly set himself to work. By dint of sheer progressiveness he succeeded. It is as a horse-trader in the far west that Harold wins his fortune, and thus we see him when a letter from Bess comes to him, telling him of her unhappiness. She does not know of his success, but the thought of her approaching wedding torments her, and so she sends him a long, last, despairing letter. And so it comes about that we see Mordaunt walk in and upset all the nice arrangements of Parker on that blissful day he has been long anticipating. Mordaunt does the thing in such a masterful way that one feels exceedingly glad. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
