Whatsoever a Woman Soweth (1914)
Pauline Marlowe and Robert Caldwell have set the date on which they are to be married. A few days before the wedding. Robert's father is proven to be an embezzler, and it is a great question in Pauline's mind whether she shall marry Robert, despite the fact that his name is blackened, or whether she should face the comments of the unsympathetic public. She decides to turn from him and afterwards marries, only to find that her married life is unhappy; that she loves only Robert. He has gone away, struggled and fought alone, and at last returned to his home to take the position as president of the very bank which his father had robbed. Meanwhile Pauline's husband has died and her interests are centered alone in her son Arthur, who, like his father, has been a great disappointment. Now a young man of twenty-three, he and his mother return home. He is put to work in a law office where he proves a failure. He talks back to Pauline's father, who is overcome and dies of heart failure. Up to this time Robert Caldwell has avoided her, but now in her sorrow he goes to her and arranges for Arthur to take a position in his bank. Time passes; Arthur is tempted and falls. Not until he meets the one girl in the world, does he realize whit he has done. Robert learns of his dishonesty and feels it his duty to tell Pauline. He does so, and she, realizing that she is reaping as she sowed, demands that he pays the penalty. Robert pleads with her to forgive her son and promises not to prosecute him. Anita, Arthur's sweetheart, remains true to him through all his trouble, and Pauline only wishes that she had been as broad minded in her younger days. Realizing the great generosity of Robert, and the big mistake she has made, she goes to the one man whose love she has denied herself for so many years, and he accepts her with open arms.
