One day a stranger comes to town and sees Edna. He is impressed with her beauty. She has never seen this type of man before and falls an easy prey. Edna's father is called away on business. The man from the city calls and persuades the innocent country girl to go away with him. Before leaving, she prepares the medicine for her blind sister. In her nervous condition she takes poison tablets and tells her sister to take the medicine when the clock strikes five. In the city her dreams are shattered. She realizes her terrible mistake. However, she does not know that Martin, her farmer lover, has followed her. The shot fired by the would-be betrayer attracts the attention of the police. The scoundrel is locked up. Edna discovers she has left poison for her blind sister. The girl explains to the sergeant, and while she is talking a chauffeur is arrested for speeding. The sergeant has an idea. Bundling them all in the machine he tells the arrested driver to make fifty miles an hour, but to reach Centerville by five o'clock. They reach there in time and Edna dashes the fatal medicine from her blind sister's hand. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
