He forces her, at the pistol point, to call her lover, Philip Sawyer, on the 'phone and ask him to come to the house. He next summons a minister and acts as a witness to the ceremony. Too, he supplies a wedding ring from the loot he carries. When the couple embrace, at his command, they forget their differences and "Midnight Bill" withdraws, well satisfied that he has done at least one good turn in his life.
