He meets young society lady Elinore White and they agree to meet at Mrs. Sparks' masquerade ball. Mrs. Hendricks accidentally learns of the meeting, and decides to witness it. Donning a Spanish costume similar to that worn by Elinore, she attends the ball and jealously watches her rival. Elinore's admirer Colonel Gray, knowing the costume she planned to wear, mistakes Mrs. Hendricks for her and kisses her. Hendricks comes upon the scene, believes that his wife is unfaithful to him, and announces his determination to seek a divorce. Mrs. Hendricks, knowing of her husband's attentions to Miss White, adopts a similar course. The case comes to trial with husband and wife both desirous of freedom. Their little daughter, neglected by both parents since their separation, is taken dangerously ill. The nurse forces her way into the courtroom and tells the mother that the child is not expected to live. Terror-stricken, she leaves the courtroom and hastens to her child's bedside followed by her husband. Their little girl's suffering brings her parents together, and they resolve to forget their differences and devote their lives to their child. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
