Horton comes to his house to plead with him but he refuses to see him. Poor Horton is crushed when he arrives home. His son, Walter, insists upon knowing the cause and when he hears it he makes up his mind to go and see McLane and tell him what he thinks of him. Meantime McLane has forgotten all about everything but his blind daughter, Nora. Nora is a very lovable girl with all the wonderful intuition and highly developed sense of touch of the blind. She has left her father downstairs in the library. As her father goes outside young Horton arrives. They have a stormy altercation in which McLane is accidentally killed with a paper knife. Nora hears him fall and runs downstairs. Horton sits in a chair and feigns sleep. Nora touches him lightly on the face thus impressing his features upon her mind. She finds her dead father and Horton escapes. A year later Nora has recovered her sight. Her father's slayer has never been discovered. Nora goes into society. One of her earliest acquaintances at a house party is Walter Horton. He recognizes her but she does not know him. They are in love with each other from the first. Horton tells her of his love and with the first embrace she touches his face with her fingers and learns who he really is. The dream of happiness is over.
