Before her death, Constance wrote Barbara a letter for her to open on her 21st birthday, but when Barbara opens it and learns that her mother killed herself to escape a doomed love affair with Lawrence Austin, she invents a different story for Ambrose, knowing that the truth would hurt him too much. When a surgeon restores Ambrose's sight, Barbara's aunt Miriam, whom Ambrose loved before he met Constance, decides to gain her revenge by giving him the letter, but in his eagerness to read it, he removes the bandages too soon. Barbara, whom the doctor also cured, tries on her mother's wedding gown, and in his delirium Ambrose believes that she is the spirit of Constance returning to assure him of her love. He dies happily, and later, Barbara marries Lawrence's son Roger. Written by AFI See less
