At the age of 25 his sight is restored after a delicate operation. He falls in love with Laura and marries her. He then is sent to Idaho as foreman of a construction gang replacing Semple, who swears revenge. Waldo is unable to handle the men, and in order to win them over, resorts to playing his violin for them. The Chief arrives and, finding the men idle, smashes the violin. Waldo rushes out, accidentally falling over a cliff. He loses his memory, and for a year wanders about the country. By chance he wanders back to camp. Here he encounters Semple with his wife. A fight ensues in which Waldo receives a blow which restores his memory. In later years Waldo achieves fame and fortune as a violinist. Written by
