He goes abroad and in his absence Mary falls in love with Dick Prendle, a newspaper reporter. She writes Lindsey a letter, asking to be released from their engagement. He still loves Mary and writes a fond note of renunciation. Mary slips the letter in an old book which she is reading at the time. Dick and she are married, but Dick develops an insane jealousy. He becomes acquainted with Lindsey and brings him home to dinner. Dick immediately becomes jealous. Then Dick finds the letter in the old book, and has a terrible scene with his wife and later with Lindsey. Dick leaves his signet ring in a washroom where it becomes the innocent cause for charges against him of having committed a robbery. Lindsey works on the case and discovers the real thief. He succeeds in freeing Dick, whereupon Dick forgets his jealousy and comes to learn at last the truth that his wife loves him dearly and that Lindsey is a genuine true friend.
