Her Brother's Partner (1912)
William Caldwell loves Eleanor Caines and Eleanor loves William. Eleanor's love grows daily, and when the marriage knot is at last tied her life's happiness seems completed. But alas! The husband, subjected to adverse fate, falls in our estimation, though he still seems heroic to his faithful wife. Driven to an extremity, he finds himself brutal in his conduct toward his wife. Her opposition to his unreasonable demands causes within him a submerging of his love for her and he becomes violent. They then part. William Caldwell goes out west to retrieve, if not redeem himself in his own heart and soul. He did gain the mastery over his body, but the worm which dieth not gnaweth at his very vitals. His partner thought him the best, the truest and bravest of men, for his conduct now well merited that belief. And what of Eleanor? She was driven to the last ditch of despair. She strove hard to eradicate the image of her once glorious idol from her heart. She sank into the depths of poverty, then, hearing from a long-absent brother in the west, she drifted thence and to her fate. She arrived at her brother's place during his absence, but his partner was there to receive her, who was no other than William Caldwell. The brother comes in on the scene unexpectedly. No time is left for either to calmly explain or for proper consideration of the course to pursue. But by a glance and a cautioning look they agree to let the brother and partner remain in ignorance of the tragedy in their lives. Thus thrown into an unexpected propinquity the smoldering fire of the divine spark soon bursts forth into flame. Their old love is again renewed, but now freed from the carnality which first surrounded it, it becomes hallowed and life is again sweeter, brighter and better.
