At home, the attorney's wife reads a newspaper account of the affair and is greatly disturbed. Next morning the attorney purchases a box of tools for his little son Bobby and as they pass along the street the criminal, being conducted to jail, again breaks away from his guard and assaults the prosecutor. Bobby, coming from school, tells the mother and adds to her worries. It happens that the prison conveyance is delayed and the desperate criminal succeeds in escaping. He makes his way to the attorney's house and bides his time, that he may be revenged. That night as the attorney sits alone in his library, the criminal creeps in and confronts him with a revolver. A battle of wits takes place as the attorney endeavors to call the butler, but is frustrated. Toying with his victim, the desperate man sits in a chair and covers the attorney with his gun, taunting him. Bobby, earlier in the day, has tried the new tools and sawed the leg of the chair in which the criminal is seated and when the latter makes a sudden move, it gives way. Quick as a flash the attorney is master of the situation and summons help. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
