Being most modest, he does not wait to be congratulated or identified by any of the crowd which gathers around. A few days later he chances to meet the old professor in a book store. There is just one left of a certain book which each desires to buy and their rivalry ends in mean words. The days of George's final examination are at hand and a friend gives him a letter to the professor, which asks that the old gentleman extend George such favors as he can. The old professor recognizes George as the young man with whom he had the altercation in the bookstore and answers that he may expect fairness, but no favors. Dejectedly, the young fellow prepares to leave when the little granddaughter happens to enter the room and recognizes George as her rescuer. She tells her grandfather of his heroic act and the heart of the professor softens. The day of final examination arrives. George is seated before the old teacher, who assumes an air of severity which seems to signify to the student that hard impossible questions are ahead. Though discouraged he does not lose hope. That evening the granddaughter and her governess visit him. He thinks they mean to thank him for his stopping the runaway, but the child hands him a letter, a notice that he passed his examination with honors. And then the old professor pays him a visit, to both thank and congratulate him. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
