Synopsis: [?] [From The Moving Picture World]? The story tells of Miriam Kennerly, wife of John, a man so absorbed in his business that he neglects to pay her the attention she craves, which leads her to believe that his love is waning. When he is unable to attend a big reception she is giving, she becomes convinced that he has ceased to love her. During the reception John returns and seeks his wife. He finds her in a secluded comer. Unseen, he overhears Miriam promise to give her answer to the interloper on the following day. John arranges a yachting trip and among the guests invited is the man who is trying to break up his home. The development of the plot is stirring and the denouncement full of thrills.
