As the tourists are sauntering along the road, Brenta and his daughters, Emma and Mabel pass them in their carriage. It appeared like a double case of love at first sight. In the meantime, Black Bill and his pal have changed their prison garb in the house of a friend and sally forth. They encounter the young tourists and then notify the magistrate through a note that the convicts who escaped are disguised as tourists. Beck and Lind present themselves at the Brenta home, and on account of their gentlemanly demeanor, are permitted to be guests overnight. After the family and guests have retired Black Bill pays a midnight visit to the house and enters the room occupied by the tourists. He steals Lind's note book and his money when he is discovered in the act of escaping. Lind grabs him, but in a spirit of charity and forgiveness, decides not to turn him over to the police. Instead, he allows him to keep the money and pocketbook and advises him to mend his ways. On the following morning Judge Smith arrives at the Brenta home and informs the family that two convicts have been harbored overnight. There is suppressed excitement while the police are being summoned, and when Beck and Lind appear they are openly accused. Just as they are about to be arrested, Black Bill enters and returns the money and pocketbook to Lind. Then all is made clear and Black Bill makes a clean breast of his escape and the deception he had practiced. Before the close of the story it is apparent that Lind and Emma love each other and the same sentiment is manifest between Beck and Mabel. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
