His orphan son, Joe, an infant, is brought up by a charitable negro, and though he shows many good traits, the sins of his father are visited upon him. Warren Fisher, a well to do man, wishing to aid him, gives him a letter to a distant friend, thinking that a change in environment will do the young man good. The friend, Mr. Evans, gives Joe a position. Five years later, his native talents have made him a factor in Mr. Evans' business, and he is made a partner. Joe falls in love with Mr. Evans' daughter and her father casts his influence on his side. Yielding to parental wishes, the girl, against her inclinations, accepts her suitor, and the wedding date is set. Warren Fisher arrives just as the ceremony is about to start and by revealing Joe's parentage, stops the wedding. Crushed of his misfortunes, he kills himself.
