However, he retains a shawl from the peddler's pack, which he gives to his wife, telling her that the peddler gave it to her for her kindness to him. Friends of the peddler set out to seek him. When all the clues point to the farmer's house and they see the wife wearing the shawl, the farmer is arrested and brought to trial. It is discovered that the peddler had not died, but had been saved, taken to the hospital, and, his memory completely restored, he appears to testify against the farmer. The picture ends with the conviction of the farmer for assault with intent to kill. See less
