Her brother, Fred, is fond of her in his rough way and admires her spirit of rebellion. Among the villagers she is a terror, and with the school pupils she is idolized as the captain of disorder. Budding into womanhood in her wild ways, Molly comes up against Neil Freeman, the new school-teacher. In the first day of school disorder Freeman takes in the situation. He realizes that discipline is the chief need of his overgrown pupils and he also realizes that Molly must he conquered of her rebellious ways. Neil Freeman is a man of determination and when he made up his mind to introduce that element of discipline in his school he meant to accomplish this at all hazard. Being a man of large frame and strength, he readily subdues the boys by physical force. With Molly it is a different proposition. His knowledge of women is that they must be handled with gentle firmness. These tactics Freeman uses with Molly, but as she does not understand them, she laughs. Her brother supports her in her rebellious attitude towards the teacher. Not until fright and pity are for the first time aroused in the heart of the girl is her rebellious spirit broken. This happens when her brother strikes Neil Freeman senseless in a fit of anger. Then Molly becomes a woman, and so much a woman that she falls in love with the very man she had declared she hated. Neil Freeman has long before fallen in love with the spirited girl. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
