A Relic of Old Japan (1914)
Baron Yoshoto, an old Samurai of Japan, is loath to have his son Koto go to the States to finish his education, but is finally persuaded. Koto bids his sweetheart goodbye and vows to his father that he will not be influenced by American customs, but will return a Samurai. A year later at a college club, Koto meets Jim Wendell, a crook and schemer. Wendell introduces Koto to a chorus girl, Annette Walsh, who ensnares him into a marriage. When Baron Yoshoto hears of Koto's marriage he disinherits him, and Annette, who only married Koto for his money, deserts him and goes with Jim Wendell. Koto trails them and strangles Annette. He then goes to the police and gives himself up, writing a note of farewell to his father and sweetheart in old Japan.
