Some time later, having met with some success in the city, Ray proposes to the daughter of his boarding house keeper and is eagerly accepted. They are married and but fairly settled in their little flat when Ray receives news of the death of his mother. Ray goes to his home town and returns with his sister, Mary. It is then that he discovers the jealous nature of his wife, who puts all of the hard work on the little girl and gives her tasks to do, work of a nature which overtaxes her strength. A climax comes when the little one, through carelessness of her sister-in-law, is nearly asphyxiated by gas escaping from the kitchen range. The incident awakens Ray to a realization of his wife's unfitness and after a stormy scene she leaves the house, while Ray takes his little sister to his heart, promising that in the future no one will come between them.
