Dan, the lighthouse keeper, a sweetheart of Alice, goes with her to her father and asks for her hand in marriage. The father, a retired sea captain, tells Dan, "When you quit drinking and can show me one thousand dollars you can have her." Pete, who is in love with Alice, determines to use Dan's weakness to his own advantage, believing if he can keep Dan drinking Alice will soon become disgusted and throw him over. Inducing Dan to visit the village dram shop Pete succeeds in sending him home two hours later very much under the weather. The same day the lighthouse inspector while making his rounds sees Dan's condition and promptly discharges him. In the meantime, the aged miser who has become dangerously ill through his recent experience, tells the doctor when he is dead to give his money to the young girl who has been kind to him. "The next night Pete, who has learned of the miser's horde, persuades Dan while in more or less of an irresponsible condition, to go with him to get the gold. Alice, who has seen the meeting and suspects mischief, follows and enters the miser's hut just after Dan's arrival and is confronted by the doctor, who tells them the miser has just died and left his money to Alice. Dan, awakened to the realization of his unfortunate position, falls on his knees and begs Alice's forgiveness. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
