Plot Summary:Wilbur Rallston, a young lawyer who has a fair practice, is in medium circumstances. He has as friends, Paul Schall, an artist and Calvert Irvine, a doctor. In the same city is Harris Raymond, president of the city's largest bank. Raymond has one daughter, Nella. At the studio where she is to be painted with Feldman, a wealthy suitor, Nella meets Wilbur and later, after a number of sittings at the studio, they fall in love. Paul is also in love with Nella, but keeps this a secret, except from Irvine. Later Wilbur and Nella are married. Feldman goes to Paul's studio to have his portrait painted. Nella tells Wilbur that Raymond, her father, is retiring from the bank after a most successful career. By talk like this she urges Wilbur on to make a name for himself and to rise to the pinnacle of his profession. He devotes all his time to business, but with little success. Feldman goes to see his finished portrait, and worried over financial troubles and further angered because the painting does not suit him, he attempts to tear it up. Paul tries to stop him, and in the struggle Feldman strikes Paul a blow, which accidentally kills him. Wilbur oversees this and Feldman tells him that if he will clear him of the crime, he will give him entire charge of his affairs and make him famous. For Nella's sake, Wilbur consents. Feldman is freed of all blame, and true to his promise, he begins to send Wilbur rich clients. Finally Wilbur reaches the pinnacle of success as a lawyer. In the meantime, Feldman has been paying attention to Nella. Wilbur and Nella are invited to a reception, but at the last moment Wilbur finds that business prevents his attending, and he suggests that Nella go with Feldman. After the two have gone, Wilbur goes to the office. Coming home shortly before the time for the reception to be over, he finds a letter from the hostess saying that on account of her illness, the reception has been called off. He inquires of the servants if Nella has returned and is told she has not. A couple of hours pass. Nella and Feldman return and the latter tells Wilbur that the reception was a great success. Wilbur keeps quiet and asks Feldman to sit down. He then shows him the letter saying that the reception was canceled. A struggle takes place. Nella hears the noise of the struggle and is frightened. Pulling aside the curtains, she sees the finish, Feldman dead on the floor. Husband and wife are reconciled.
