Knowing the dangers that surround a "jail-bird" he leaves the place and goes to a far city. He secures work in the stock and bond establishment of Bell and Taylor, the former member of the firm being particularly friendly and his sponsor in business. Taylor is a tricky individual and seriously involves the firm by selling absolute worthless securities. An invalid, Mad Muller, who invests his all in these mythical properties, reading of the firm's collapse, comes to remonstrate with Taylor. The conversation between the two men becomes so heated, that Muller strikes Taylor upon the head with a seal and kills him, and then flees. Bell, in the next office, hears the heavy fall and rushes into the room. At the beginning of the quarrel, Gordon fearing trouble rushed out to get the police leaving Muller and Taylor alone. When he returns with the police, they find Bell on the scene, and immediately arrest him, accusing him of the crime on circumstantial evidence, and he is convicted and sentenced on this charge to be hanged. Gordon learns from the confession of the real murderer, a dying man, that his friend is innocent, and as the Governor is away from home in order to gain time, he forges the Governor's name to a reprieve of the death sentence. This is a daring and desperate remedy, but when the Governor becomes acquainted with the facts, he forgives and commends Gordon, who is happy in having his best friend reinstated in the esteem of the world.
