Synopsis
Richard Mostyn, a dishonest New York stockbroker, vacations in the Tennessee hills, where he meets Dolly Drake, a charming young schoolteacher. The two fall in love, and Richard returns to New York, intending to wrap up his business affairs and then begin a new life with Dolly in the country. Eventually, however, he forgets about Dolly and marries Irene Mitchell, a society woman. The marriage is unhappy, and Richard finds pleasure only in the companionship of his little son Dick until the child dies on the operating table. After Irene leaves him for her former lover, Richard returns to Tennessee hoping that Dolly will marry him, but she confesses that she now loves his business partner. Having lost everything, Richard finds solace in religion and becomes an evangelist.
