He returns home to find his wife and child in great poverty and searches for work in vain; his past is against him. Finally he obtains a job in a large factory, but forgets to report himself to the police, and his employer is informed and he is discharged. On his way home he succeeds in saving a little girl in the nick of time from being run down by a reckless automobilist. That night, desperate at the thought of the privation of his wife and child, he breaks into a house. In the darkness he knocks over a statue, and disturbs the owner of the house, who enters pistol in hand. He is about to summon the police to give him in their charge, but at that moment his little daughter steals in, and with a sudden cry of joy, she runs to the burglar, recognizing in him the man who had saved her life. Explanations follow, and the father, grateful and compassionate, is instrumental a few days later in procuring work for the man and starting him afresh in life.
