The Only Way (1914)
A village belle, June Meadows, is wooed by the town banker and by a young sailor, who, in spite of his poverty, wins the heart of June. The banker learns of her affection for the sailor and retires from the field. The seaman sails with his ship and leaves his sweetheart, with a promise to give tip the sea upon his return and that they will be married. Months pass and June learns that the ship went down at sea and all on board were lost. In desperation she goes to the banker, who asked her hand, and confessing pleads with him to save her from disgrace. He still loves her and they are married. The child is born and its father the sailor, supposed to have been buried at sea, arrives to find June the wife of the banker. Jack goes to the banker's home and confronts the banker, whom he is about to strike, when June, hearing them quarrel, rushes in and recognizes her lost lover. She throws herself upon him and in her wild joy shows him the child. The banker, watching them, gently reminds her that she is his wife, not Jack's. He bids Jack call on the morrow by which time he will have thought of what is best to do under the circumstances and when the morrow comes the young couple find themselves alone, as the kind-hearted banker has disappeared and an apparition to June discloses that he is no longer among the living, an evidence of his sacrificing love for her.
