A month later, the cynic and the simple country maid are married. Upon his return to the city. Hughson finds that his wife cares nothing for fashionable society, preferring to spend her time aiding the city's unfortunates. While in the slums, Millie meets Rosa, one of the submerged. Broughton, Hughson's friend, is also interested in charity work. As the result, he and Millie become firm friends. Cora Grayson, an adventuress, loves Hughson. She implants the germ of suspicion in his heart and causes him to think Millie guilty of an intrigue with Broughton. Millie discovers that Broughton is searching for his wayward sister. Later, she learns that Rosa is the missing sister, and brings the girl back to Broughton's arms. Hughson, ignorant of this, finally orders Millie to return to her father. His faith in womankind shattered, the man goes back to Cora and resumes his old life. Hughson learns of his terrible mistake, however, when Broughton and Rosa come to express their gratitude. Hastening to the country, Hughson finds that Millie, heartbroken, has gone to Africa to take up missionary work. The husband immediately follows. A tribe of natives go on the warpath and attack the little party of workers in the mission. A friendly native gives the alarm. He meets Hughson, who is with a party of hunters. The white men go to the rescue. The missioners are about to be burned alive, when Hughson and his party arrive. A hot battle ensues and the blacks are beaten. Hughson finds his wife. Clasping her in his arms, he begs Millie for forgiveness. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
