Robert, a wicked knight in her husband's service, had made advances to her which she had promptly rebuffed. In revenge, he cast suspicion in the mind of the Count over the innocent relations of the Countess and the youth, and by stupendous falsehood persuaded the Count to take drastic measures. Accordingly they repaired to the Count's iron foundry, where the workmen were instructed to cast into the furnace the messenger who would arrive and ask if the Count's wishes had been obeyed. The page is sent on the errand of death, but before leaving the castle meets the Countess, who has been unable to attend mass owing to the illness of her child, and she requests him to stop on the way and offer prayers for the quick recovery of the little one. The impatient knight waits until he imagines the page has been destroyed and makes his way to the foundry, arriving before the youth, and when he inquires if the Count's wishes have been carried out, he is seized and hurled into the fire. When the page gets to the foundry the workmen give him the knight's necklace, and he brings it back to the Count. The latter, by adroit questioning, soon gets to the bottom of the conspiracy, and learns how innocent and pure-minded the boy is. Stricken with remorse, he leads the page to the Countess and gently tells her to be always kind to him. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
