Plot Summary:Paul Howard was four years old when his mother gave her life tor her second child. The tragic circumstance embittered John Howard, father of the two children; it made him hate the daughter whose coming robbed him of his wife. Fleeing from his grief, he went abroad, accompanied by little Paul. The girl remained in care of Dr. Morton and his wife, a trained nurse, who attended Mrs. Howard in her last illness. Howard arranged that the Mortons should rear the child in ignorance of her parentage, and regularly sent remittances for her maintenance. Mrs. Morton, in course of time, gave birth to a daughter. Three years later John Howard's unfortunate daughter died, and the Mortons, fearing lest the remittances stop, concealed the fact from Howard and the world. Paul grew up in Paris, where his father's indulgence permitted him to cultivate ill acquaintances and worse habits. He really had a talent for art, but spent little time in his studio. At length John Howard became aware that his son was going to the dogs. At the suggestion of his friend, Scott, he sent the boy back to America. Scott knew the Mortons, and falling in with them, introduced Paul Howard. Bessie Morton took a keen interest in the young artist, and under her influence Paul was soon weaned away from his bad habits. Love followed, naturally, and one day they were quietly married. Returning home, Paul was overjoyed to meet his father, who, tired of his loneliness, came to see his boy. Scott's good reports of Paul and the news of his love affair pleased Howard. But when he entered Bessie's studio and saw on the easel a portrait of his dead wife, a dreadful misgiving seized him. \"That is my mother,\" said Bessie proudly, \"I painted it from this miniature of her.\" \"Oh, God,\" said John Howard. When he could trust himself to speak, he told Paul and Bessie that they were brother and sister. They slunk away like wounded animals. Mrs. Morton came in and saw Howard. When he told her what had passed, she went swiftly to Bessie's room, and was just in time to snatch from the girl's lips a fatal dose of poison. Then followed her own tremendous struggle with herself, when she fought the fears of what John Howard might do to those who cheated him. In the end it was her mother love which forced her to confess. John Howard raised her from where she cowered at his feet. \"There is nothing to forgive,\" he said, \"Look, you have made these two young ones happy.\"
