He meets her and, despite his friend's protests, pays ardent court to Dolly. Joe has overheard Dolly in conversation with another member of her troupe, Harry Hale, an unprincipled fellow, and believes that Cal will make a great mistake. But his friend will not listen, and Dolly leaves the troupe to marry Cal. For a while they are happy, but after their baby's death, Dolly becomes despondent. Joe, who knows that the child wasn't Cal's, is silent. Shortly afterward, the theatrical troupe returns to that town, Harry among them. He finds his old fascination is still effective with her, and the rascal finally prevails upon her to elope with him. Joe has overheard their plans, and feeling that it is best, allows them to go, but Cal misses his wife and after a search finds her. Then in an intensely dramatic scene, he learns the whole truth: the baby he so mourns was Harry's. Cal's anger is aroused to its fullest height and he attacks Harry. Dolly backs away from the struggling men in horror and falls over the edge of a high cliff, but a short distance down, she strikes a tree growing out of the side of the cliff and remains tangled in its branches. Cal hears her cry and rushes to her rescue, while Harry, making good his escape, is thrown from his horse and killed. Dolly is crippled from her fall, but so great is Cal's love that he forgives her and takes her to his heart, as does his mother when Joe has concluded his story.
