He plans a match between her and his own son William, but she falls in love with Luke Blomfield, a neighbor, and William is secretly betrothed to Mary Morrison, a servant in his father's household. Farmer Allan's announcement of his plan is William's justification for eloping with Mary. They confess their secret to Dora, and shortly afterward are forced to reveal it to Farmer Allan, who at once disinherits William and orders him from the house, despite Dora's pleadings. When she implores him to help them, he threatens to treat her in the same fashion if she ever mentions their names to him again. Secretly Dora places baskets of food outside the door of William's cottage, for her cousin is ill and in want. Mary believes it is Luke who aids them, for she is bitter against Dora, thinking it is she who keeps William and his father apart. Luke, too, is wroth with Dora, for she refuses his suit. Farmer Allan makes a will leaving all his property to her, despite her protests. Just before William dies Mary discovers that Dora is her benefactress. Dora breaks the long silence and is disowned by Farmer Allan. Going to live with Mary, she schemes to bring William's child to the old man's attention, and through the child the man of stone is softened. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
