It is found by a girl in his employ, who brings it back in spite of the fact that she needs the money very much herself. Bob then tells her why he values the coin so highly. Years before, when he was a street urchin, he happened to pass a house where a lawn party was being given for a little girl. It was the little lady's birthday and her father had given her a gold coin as a present. All the children shunned the boy because he was poorly dressed, but the child gave him some cake and felt so sorry for him that she made him take her gold piece. Giving the gold piece as security, he went into the business and prospered. In the meanwhile the Bruces had lost all their money and were forced to leave their fine home and live in poorer quarters. When Bob finishes his story the girl tells him that she is the one who befriended him as a child. After her father's death, she ways, she was forced to earn her own living, and so came to work to earn her own living. And so came to work in the factory. Bob is delighted and at once proposes to Marion. They have a wedding ring made out of the gold piece and the last picture shows Bob placing it on her finger.
