Twenty years later, Carey, an old pal of Howard's, having served out his term, comes to Mrs. Howard, and under threat to tell Ruth all about her father, persuades her to help him pass some counterfeit bills. Walton, of the U.S. Secret Service, who is engaged to Ruth, is assigned to track down the counterfeiters. On a certain morning, as she is about to leave the house, in answer to her daughter's question, Mrs. Howard says that she is visiting some friends on Staten Island and will take the ten o'clock boat. That day, after passing several counterfeit bills, she is followed by Walton to Carey's house, which is raided. As Mrs. Howard is disguised, the young detective does not discover her identity. She tells him of her efforts to shield Ruth from the knowledge that her father was a criminal. Meanwhile, the ten o'clock boat has been sunk and many lives lost. She persuades Walton to let Ruth believe that she has been drowned in the disaster. Walton and Ruth marry. Each year, on the anniversary of the sinking of the ten o'clock boat, Ruth honors her mother's memory. And in a prison cell the mother rejoices in her sole comforting thought, that her daughter shall never know. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
