William Jardine, his graceless brother, comes as a self-invited guest and usurps to himself the rights of the household, and even comes to regard James as an intruder. He is rather well pleased when it is believed that the helpless man has rolled into the lake, and takes complete possession of his legacy. But James Jardine was not drowned. As he sat in his wheelchair a couple of automobilists, with alcoholic kindliness, decided to give the invalid a ride, and in raising him to put him into the car they knocked the chair into the lake. Soon they tired of their company and unceremoniously dumped him beside the road, where he is found by Dr. Griggs. Griggs tells Jardine that his paralysis is curable, and while the treatment is being given Jardine gives no hint to his brother. Love comes with health and Alice Griggs goes with him as his bride when he returns home. He is not a welcome visitor when he arrives, for Bill is riotously enjoying himself with some of his boon companions, and does not relish being turned out of the house with but a small allowance. But James is mindful of the many insults and annoyances and the time of reckoning has come. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
