Years later he is informed that Clare is a widow. His old love for her flames anew and he returns to find that the lawyer has absconded with half of his fortune and that his mansion has been sold to the father of Doris Athelstone. Armitage's love for Clare dies, and an investigation reveals to him that the lawyer is in reality the thief and the father of Doris, and that the young girl, who has not seen her father since she was a baby, is under the impression that he is an explorer. In his love for Doris, who is the sole occupant of his mansion, he keeps this a secret, but is impelled to disclose the facts to her when, entering his house for some papers, he is shot by Doris. He starts out to unravel the mystery and locates the father dying in Yucatan. The old man tells Armitage that he stole to keep his daughter from want, and forgiven, he dies happy. Armitage, returning, marries Doris, but keeps secret that her father was a thief. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
