At last he applies to the charities. Red tape and delay are the sole result, and the desperate man decides to burglarize the house of Dr. King. The doctor sees Bill helping himself to the silver, and gets a good look at him before Slade can make his escape. Shortly afterward, the mills reopen and Bill goes hack to his old job. The Slade baby is taken very ill. Unable to get the neighborhood physician, its anxious father begs the druggist to call a reliable doctor. Dr. King takes the case. On arriving at the home of the child, the physician recognizes in Slade the burglar, and Slade is overcome with terror at the idea of being given over to the police. He makes a confession to King, who is greatly moved by Slade's story. He promises to keep Bill's secret. Dr. King pulls the baby safely through, and he and Slade become fast friends.
