The friendship between Ribot and Grace soon ripens into love, but Halton is falsely accused of the murder of a gambler, and is compelled to flee the country, owing his escape to the resourcefulness of Jean. The fugitive finds a home in Canada, where Jean and Grace prepare for their approaching marriage. During Jean's absence on a hunting trip, Haskins, a former employee of the dead gambler, appears and by threatening to denounce Halton to the authorities, secures Grace's promise to marry him. Consequently, when Ribot returns, he is surprised to find that she has apparently jilted him. The father, however, cannot bear to see his daughter unhappy so he surrenders himself to the authorities, and thus leaves a way open to Grace's marriage to Ribot. Haskins, the gambler, sends a letter to Grace purporting to be from her father, stating that he has escaped, and asking her to meet him at a certain lonely spot in the wilderness. Fortunately, soon after Grace has set forth to the appointed place, Ribot learns that the message was not sent by her father, and arrives in time to rescue the girl and punish Haskins for his dastardly trick. Incidentally Ribot makes Haskins confess that he was the slayer of his late employer, and that Grace's father is innocent. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
