Plot Summary:George Harding, a farmer boy, driving home from the minister's with his young bride, is passed by a stranger who throws a bundle into his rig. A moment later another rig, containing a young couple, rounds the bend in the road and passes Harding in pursuit of the first team. After the two teams have disappeared Harding and his bride open the bundle and discover a tiny baby girl. When George arrives home with his bride his mother is horror-struck at the sight of the baby and refuses to acknowledge her son's wife. George and his wife leave for the city, taking the baby with them, and a farmer who had seen the incident, tells George's parents about it. The old farmer writes George, confessing his error and pleading with him to bring his wife home. George chooses to locate in the city, where he opens a theatrical supply shop. Ione, the adopted child, grows to young womanhood and becomes an expert costumer and wig maker. One day while at the seashore Ione ventures too far up the cliff. Harding, in trying to rescue her, breaks his hip and becomes permanently injured. Ione undertakes to row back to the resort. She is caught in a storm, breaks an oar, and is about swamped when Bert Alguire, the son of the rich Henry Alguire, discovers her boat and rescues the party, accompanying them back to the city. Blair, a noted crook, and Nell, his accomplice, plan to rob the Alguire home. Blair visits the Harding store for wigs and becomes infatuated with Ione. He buys a blonde wig for Nell, who is later engaged as a nurse and companion to Alguire's invalid wife in order that she may locate the family jewels and money. Bert Alguire goes to the store for wigs and costumes to use in private theatricals, and induces Ione to take part in his play. While a rehearsal is in progress at the Alguire home, Nell admits Blair disguised with wig and beard bought of Ione. Blair succeeds in robbing the safe, but is surprised by Bert. A fight ensues and Blair and Nell escape. Ione tells of the blonde wig and other goods sold to Blair. Bert requests his father to keep the affair out of the officers' hands and let him and Ione ferret the case. Among the papers stolen from the safe is a clipping nineteen years old, in which Alguire advertised for information concerning a kidnapped child, offering a reward, and stating the baby had a heart-shaped birthmark under the left arm. Blair finds the clipping. The next day he takes the blonde wig back to Ione to dye. Ione raises her arm and he discovers a mark corresponding to the one mentioned in the clipping. Concluding he has discovered the lost child, he writes a letter to Mr. Alguire asking if his offer of a reward made nineteen years ago still holds good. Alguire is about to renew the offer when Bert again gets permission to work on the case. During this time Bert and Ione become engaged, the engagement being sanctioned by both Ione's foster parents and Bert's parents. Ione is unsuspicious that she is other than the Harding's own child. Bert determines to visit the locality where his little sister was kidnapped, Ione is to disguise herself as an old woman and sleuth Blair. While in the park looking over papers and letters stolon from the Alguire safe, Blair drops the clipping telling of the kidnapped child. Ione is watching, secures the paper, hides it on her person and follows Blair to his rooms. The officers are sent to arrest Blair and Nell. Blair knocks both officers down and escapes. A chase ensues. Nell takes one direction and Blair another. He joins Nell at the docks and then jumps into a small boat. The officers arrive and shoot, wounding Blair. Nell endeavors to aid him when both fall overboard and are drowned. Ione reads the clipping picked up in the park and learns that the Alguires once lost a child with a birthmark similar to hers. She tells Harding and his wife, who realize that she is the daughter of the rich Alguires and that she is engaged to marry her own brother. Ione is prostrated. In the meantime Bert visits the locality of the kidnapping and discovers that George Harding adopted the child which came to him so mysteriously and that he is engaged to his own sister. He returns heavy hearted, and tells his parents that Ione is their long-lost daughter. Ione and the Hardings are sent for. The two young people are heartbroken. The invalid mother, however, tells them that Bert was taken from an orphanage by her shortly after Ione was stolen.
