Jim Bradley, who has a fondness for drink, acquires a little home through the work of his wife and daughter. Kirk Winters, who admires Mildred Bradley, purchases her father's home, when he is in an intoxicated state. He shows the deed to Mrs. Bradley and tells her that unless Mildred becomes his wife he will turn them out of the house. Rather than concede to Winters' wishes, they leave and subsequently are given employment in the vineyard of George McLean, who bestows courtesy upon them. Kirk Winters learns from Mr. Bradley where his wife and daughter are. He tries to make trouble for them, but they are protected by McLean, who discharges a number of his employees who assisted Winters. At a saloon where Winters and his men have planned to attack the McLeans is Mr. Bradley. He overhears their plot, hurries to the McLean home to inform them of impending danger; and when Winters arrives and is about to shoot McLean, Bradley jumps in front of him and receives the bullet. The murderer is led away by the now sobered mob and the grief-stricken wife kneels beside the body of her husband. -Moving Picture World, November 18, 1911, p. 580.
