Their love affair had been watched by Oshimo, who swore vengeance upon the young officer. With this object in view, he sent a note, purporting to come from Foomi, asking Paul to meet her in the garden tea house for a last goodbye. This note fell into the hands of one of Paul's comrades, who decided to keep the rendezvous in Paul's stead. He had no sooner entered the tea house when Oshimo sprang upon him and stabbed him to death. Foomi witnessed the crime, and as Oshimo dragged his victim into the garden, she picked up the broken hilt of a dagger and followed him. Startled by approaching footsteps, Oshimo dropped the body at the gate, and as Fate would have it, Paul issued just at that moment, and as he stooped to examine the corpse, was surprised and arrested by several soldiers who were passing. The blood stains upon his hands and his known enmity for the dead officer went hard with him at the trial. He was about to be sentenced when Foomi rushed in and proclaimed her own guilt, showing the broken dagger hilt as proof. Paul was thoroughly convinced of the girl's innocence and tried to interest the doctor in her case to no avail. They were in the midst of a heated argument, when a little Japanese girl forced her way into the room and threw herself at their feet. To all questions, she would only answer, "Foomi is innocent." Despairing of getting anything more out of her, Paul and the doctor decided to follow her. She led them to the garden tea house and upon entering, they found the body of Oshimo and a confession of his guilt. The two men quickly secured Foomi's release, and a new day dawned for her when Paul assured her of his love and of his intention to marry her. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
