Joe, a miner, takes Bob home where his wife dresses the wound, and offers him shelter until he shall become well. Joe mistakes Mary's sympathy for Bob for love and decides to put himself out of their way. He causes an explosion, at the mine, leaves his hat and coat and makes it appear as though he has been killed. But Mary loves Joe, and her grief at his apparent loss is great. Six months later Joe, in rags and with beard, comes back to the scene of the explosion. But his mind does not recall everything perfectly, for in his brooding he has become mentally deranged. Miners see him, and believing him a ghost, flee in fear. Bob heads a party to investigate the place of the reported apparition and in a most unexpected manner comes face to face with his old benefactor. The man's mind slowly regains balance and he remembers that he has a wife. Bob persuades him to come back, but as they approach the house they discover a doctor just leaving. Joe enters to find his wife still longing for him, and to share with her the joy that has just come to them both, an offspring. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
