Storyline
Plot Summary |
The story deals with the love of a strong brother for one who is weaker, a cripple. When both were boys, the elder brother taunted the younger with the fact that he was unable to climb a cliff. The younger brother tries and in the attempt falls and injures himself to such an extent that he is never able to walk again. The elder brothers love from this time on is a continual series of sacrifices for the crippled brother. At last love comes into their life and the girl chooses the stronger brother. He finds that the cripple also loves the girl and determines to make the crowning sacrifice of his life. The cripple overhearing his brother's confession of love to the girl, decides not to accept the sacrifice and laughingly tells his brother that he loves not Helen, but his nurse. Acting on this information, the elder brother proposes to Helen and is accepted. The nurse in reality loves the cripple and they are married. The happy lovers take up their journey in life, leaving the nurse and the cripple to console each other. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis |
