He applies at the Prescott farmhouse for something to eat, but refuses to work in payment until he meets Alice, the old farmer's charming daughter. The sight of her sets him on the right track and he is given work by Prescott. The discovery is made one evening by the Prescotts that "Sliver" cannot read, but the former thief secures a grammar, and he pores over the book until he delights Alice with his self-taught knowledge. Gradually a bond of affection springs up between the two that rapidly develops into love. "Silvers" makes good on the farm, and, at last wins the consent of the Prescotts to marry Alice. A few days later Paul Prescott, Alice's brother, arrives back at the old farm on his vacation, and proves to be none other than the policeman from whom "Slivers" escaped that eventful day in the city. Informed of Alice's approaching marriage Paul hastens out to the orchard to meet his future brother-in-law, and the two men come face to face. Furiously Paul upbraids "Slivers" and is about to fell him to the ground when the ex-thief brokenly pleads for a chance to prove his complete reformation. Paul relents, clasps him by the hand, takes him back to the old folks, declares "Slivers" is an old friend, and gives Alice over to him. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
