Just before Mrs. Hazelet passes away her husband promises her never to vote wet again. Maude Le Fever, the siren, who married Alfred Tuthill, deserts him and runs away with Sam Weber; she later deserts him. Alcohol kills old Dan Weber and leaves Sam a poverty-stricken wretch. Alfred Tuthill is redeemed from rum and builds a picture theater where the old saloon once stood and becomes a respected citizen.
