Ambitious to seek new fields, Lorenzo informs his wife and parents of his intentions to go to America. At Ellis Island, in New York, Lorenzo finds a fellow countryman to guide him in the new land. Strong friendship develops between the two men though the younger, Pedro, is a debonair Americanized Italian, and after many days of coaxing, induces the new arrival, Lorenzo, to cut his beard and dress in modern clothes. Alone in Italy, Marie and her little son struggle against starvation. In America, Lorenzo's intentions are good. He accumulates money for his family in Italy; then comes an American girl. Impressed by the personality of Lorenzo, she induces her father to take him into the firm. Lorenzo neglects his faithful wife and boy. Lorenzo's wife and baby come to America to seek him. Lorenzo finds them employed in the factory of which he is the head and they become reconciled. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
