He is a few years younger and has rather unsettled notions, which are made apparent when Lucy, the younger sister of Cynthia, returns from school in all the freshness and beauty of her eighteen years. Lucy is not aware of the plighted troth of the couple and is attracted to Albert, who loves her at first sight. Cynthia sees and is resigned. Albert and Lucy are married and Cynthia, her life saddened, remains in the old home alone. Soon after the marriage, she meets with an accident which renders her a hopeless cripple. She has thoughts of being cured and lives frugally, saving her money for a surgical operation. She reads of a noted specialist who can cure her and is happy. About that time Albert, who has lived beyond his means, becomes involved in dishonesty and comes to Cynthia, his first love, and pours out his troubles. She gives him her savings. He is saved from disgrace and Lucy never knew of the affair. Lucy and her husband subsequently die of a contagious disease and Cynthia is left alone. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
