Storyline
| Plot Summary |
Lucretia Morgan marries elderly Sir Allen Lombard, who becomes a dissolute, chair-ridden drug addict and dies after a few years from an overdose of narcotics. She falls in love with District Attorney Stephen Winship, who reciprocates but, at his father's request, marries Mimi, ward of the Winships. Fate brings the two (Stephen and Lucretia) together after a "series of stirring sequences" culminating in Mimi's death when a dam bursts during a forest fire. Written by AFI |
