The Debt of Honor (1918)
Honor, an orphan who relates stories about the Land of Heart's Desire to the neighbor's poverty-stricken children, is adopted by a wealthy United States senator, Stanley Middleton. When World War I erupts, Middleton becomes too concerned with affairs of state to notice his wife Irma having an affair with Frank Schiller, a German agent, who merely is using Irma to secure information. Finally, the senator sees the silhouettes of Schiller and his wife in an embrace, but Irma accuses Honor, and the girl is turned out of the house. The next day, Irma is caught giving Schiller secret papers and the two are killed. Honor weds Middleton's secretary, Chester Holbrooke, and the couple plans to care for the heartbroken senator.
