Beckoning the girl to his table, he urges her to give up the unworthy occupation. His words make a deep impression upon her, and she starts homeward in solemn mood. Outside the door of the restaurant a man confronts her, and she gives him money. This man, George Fenmore, has cast a shadow over her life, and now that he has found her again she gives up her position. A few days later she secures employment in a book store. Courtnay had given the girl his card, but she has lost it. Fenmore, picking it up, kept it, and when Courtnay opens his campaign headquarters the blackmailer applies for a clerkship. By chance Courtnay enters the book store and meets Louise again. She consents to become his private secretary. In his private office she comes face to face with Fenmore, but he reassures her. Henry Bryson, chairman of the campaign committee, discovers him threatening the girl, interferes, and is himself blackmailed by Fenmore, who has a hold on him also. Courtnay urges Louise to marry him, and she consents. Bryson influences Courtnay to discharge Fenmore, and the latter, forcibly ejected from the offices, goes to Louise, vowing vengeance. Courtnay enters and demands an explanation of the blackmailer's presence in his home. Louise tells how, as a young girl, she eloped with Henry Bryson, and how Fenmore, his secretary, discovered that Bryson already had a wife and child. A letter from Bryson's wife, which Fenmore had stolen, afforded ample proof, and she went out of Bryson's life. As she concludes the story, Bryson enters with news of Courtnay's victory at the polls. Fenmore, triumphant, asks, "How much will you gentlemen pay to keep this out of the papers?" Bryson, in fury, attacks him, and is killed by Fenmore, who later pays the penalty of his crime.
