That his own son might inherit the fortune Everett causes Rory to be kidnapped. Twenty years later show Sir Everett's son grown up to be a cad of dissolute habits, but wealthy as a result of the stolen inheritance. Rory has grown to manhood in the home of a poor widow and her daughter Eileen and is in love with peasant girl Kathleen. Sir Everett's son wrongs Rory's foster sister. She dies and Rory swears vengeance upon the wrongdoer. However, vengeance is taken out of his hands. The kidnapper gets into an altercation with the son and kills him. Rory finds the body, is accused of the murder and is convicted and condemned to die. The conscience-stricken kidnapper confesses to a priest--a good friend of Rory's. The priest cannot dishonor the sanctity of the confessional by making the confession public, so he goes to Rory's cell and changes clothes with the young man. Rory escapes, but is speedily recaptured. The time for his execution arrives. The death-bell tolls out mournfully. It arouses the conscience-stricken kidnapper to action. He rushes to the gallows and arrives an instant before Rory is to be hanged. He confesses that the crime was his. Rory is liberated. The tolling of the death-bell also arouses the conscience of Sir Everett. He confesses the kidnapping and restores Rory to his inheritance. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
