Plot Summary:Having made arrangements for the sale of his timber holdings in the South to Henry Lawles, a despicable old rascal, who is a dealer in North America, Billy Steele comes up to close negotiations. On entering Lawler's office, he comes face to face with Josephine Gray, a beautiful young woman who seems to be in some sort of serious trouble. After leaving Lawler's office, Steele finds that he has forgotten his wallet. He goes back to the office; there, before an open safe, he sees the girl whom he had noticed a little while before. She pulls out a revolver and puts up a game fight, but Steele, watching his chance, takes the weapon away from her and in spite of her pleadings, makes her give up the papers and put them back in the safe. Before he leaves Steele finds a curious object on the floor of the office, a silver skull and cross-bones, which has evidently been used as a watch charm. When he gets out of the office building, Steele tracks Josephine and finds out her name and address. A few days later, Steele is dumbfounded when he sees in the morning paper an announcement of Josephine's engagement to Lawler. He immediately goes to the house, where he finds Josephine in tears, begging her father to save her from the engagement. Finally, Steele persuaded Josephine to make a confident of him and she tells him that her father is in the power of Lawler, because of a written statement, which is in Lawler's possession, and which is signed by Lawler and another, proving her father to be guilty of murder. There seems to be no way to get Josephine out of Lawler's power. Suddenly, while things seem worst, O'Keefe advances, showing plainly that something is the matter. Lawler, feeling that he has Gray in his power, goes to claim Josephine for his wife. She calls her father, who seems helpless in the old villain's clutches. At this moment, O'Keefe puts in an appearance, denounces Lawler and exposes his devilish plot and confesses that the sight of the silver skull had aroused what little manhood there was left in him, after he had accepted Lawler's ten thousand dollars bribe, which he received for signing the false statement. After this exposure, Billy Steele steps from behind a screen where he hid when Lawler was ushered in. He calls up the police and Lawler is turned over to them. Steele and Josephine are quietly wed and go for their wedding tour to Honduras on his own vessel, under the command of Captain O'Keefe.
