A Thrill and a Chill

In the dead of winter, pitiful little Adele DeGarde is sent out, by her mother, to beg on the streets; the girl is unsuccessful, even with wealthy revelers, who are ending a celebration. Exhausted, little Adele lies down on some snowy steps, and falls fast asleep. Passing nobleman Owen Moore sees the girl, and pitifully drops a golden coin into her empty shoe. When passing gambler Charles Inslee spies the coin, he is unable to resist stealing it; then, he uses "The Golden Louis" to win a fortune at the gambling table. A compassionate gambler, Mr. Inslee returns to share his winnings with little Adele; but, she has wandered off
