A short time after the sportsman's return to the city, his letters cease. Poor Helen, in disgrace, is driven from her home. In the city she finds work as a laundress, earning barely enough to live and care for her new-born babe. She meets a rich man. Humphrey, by name, who lends her money to buy new clothes. In an incredibly short time she finds herself completely in his power.
