In pique, she becomes the fiancée of young Linton, a serious minded fellow who sincerely loves her. Preparations for the marriage culminate in a prenuptial reception. Deyne is present, having been invited to be an usher at the wedding. The sight of her former sweetheart reawakens Millicent's love for him, and Linton, coming upon them unawares, discovers her in Deyne's arms. He leaves the house, incensed, after telling Millicent's parents of her unworthiness. Her father turns her from her home in his anger. Twenty years elapse. Millicent's husband has died and she is left in straitened circumstances with her daughter Ethel, a girl of nineteen. Linton has been highly successful and is the owner of a big mill. He is a confirmed woman-hater. Trouble arises at the factory over improvements, and Linton takes a firm stand against his employees. Ethel answers an advertisement from the office of the factory for a new stenographer and is accepted. Linton, not knowing who she is, becomes strongly attracted to her, and in time, proposes marriage. Affairs at the mill come to a climax when Dora, the daughter of McClure, suffers a breakdown, following an accident. She finally dies. Her father, feeling that Linton is responsible for the girl's death, vows vengeance. With other conspirators, he abducts Linton. Ethel learns of the plot and is carried to the secluded place chosen for his imprisonment, riding on top the limousine. Discovered by the conspirators, she is locked in an old barn with Linton, and the place is set on fire. The pair make a spectacular escape from the building. The final reconciliation of Linton, Ethel and Millicent is the climax to the story. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
