Howbeit, her husband gone is a different matter than her husband present. She commissioned a detective to locate him. Out on a lonely stretch of fertile land a solitary ranchwoman was whiling away the days of her life. One day a stranger arrived with a boy, a small girlish-looking fellow. He attracted and was attracted by the ranchwoman. They were of the same true metal. The man was Diana's husband. Diana learned of his whereabouts and went after him. She explained to the ranchwoman. The ranchwoman answered. "If you hate him be glad he left you, and if you love him you will sacrifice yourself for his happiness and leave him alone." Diana left him alone. One night while the ranchwoman was watching his camp she saw the stranger's shadow against the tent. He was fondling a girl's abundant hair. This boy, then, who traveled with him was in reality a girl or a woman. The ranchwoman's philosophy then came home to her in all its bitterness, "If you love him you will sacrifice yourself for his happiness and leave him alone." She decides to make the sacrifice. When she arrived home, however, a letter was waiting her from Diana. It read in part, "I guess you are right. He has a daughter that I can't bear and he won't live without her, so we had better separate. I am going home." Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
