The Making of a Woman (1913)
To the whole-hearted Jim Blake, all women were angels. Consequently within a month after his marriage to Gladys, he begins to realize in a dumb sort of way that a butterfly is a butterfly and will not, without a miracle, become a creature of more substantial worth. But the gods are kind to Jim and send to his aid an angel in the person of Red Dolan, the outlaw. Now Dolan loved only one being in the world and this was his son, Billy. The crime of murder made it desirable for Dolan to occupy an inaccessible place in the hills. Fate guides the wife of Jim Blake to the vicinity of Red Dolan's shack in her anxiety to get hack home after a quarrel with Jim. She is lost in the woods and becomes terror-stricken. Her cries for help bring out Red Dolan, who forces her to accompany him to help his boy. She refuses the aid asked, even the offer of the reward for Dolan's capture will not induce her. She hears the voice of the child in delirium cry out, "Mother." She no longer can resist and by morning her efforts have caused the fever to leave the boy. When later the smoke from the shack guides the frantic Jim Blake to the place, he is overjoyed to find his wife. The experience has worked a miracle with Gladys. The better nature of the woman has been aroused. There is a mutual obligation between the men. Jim has recovered his wife, awakened to the responsibilities resting upon her, and Red Dolan has the companionship of his boy. For this he was willing to surrender himself so that Jim's wife could receive the reward, and upon Jim's request he promises to leave the country and lead a better life.
