The nurse announces the birth of a boy. Bill is wild with joy. He is taken upstairs to see his son and is awe-stricken and half afraid to handle it. Later, he is seen acting as nurse and singing the baby to sleep with the "Nipper's Lullaby." Ties are hard. Bill gets out of work and gets in with bad companions. He starts to drown his sorrows in drink and often leaves his wife and child at home, supperless. One night, after visiting a "pub," intoxicated, Bill wanders down to the waterfront, and tumbles from a pier. He is picked up by a tramp steamer unconscious. By the time he recovers from his debauch and drowning experience, he finds himself well out to sea bound for a foreign port. He realizes his follies and sins. In the meantime, things have gone badly with his wife. She tries to support her child as a scrub woman. In her trouble, Dr. Brown comes to her and tells her of a society woman who wishes to adopt her boy. For the child's sake she yields, but pleads to have him with her for one last night. As she sits by the fire, singing the words of the "Nipper's Lullaby," Bill returns, takes up the song she is singing and clasps his wife and child in his arms. Bill has learned a lasting lesson and all is forgiven. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
