John Ainsley, man of education and breeding, whose war wounds left him unfit for manual labor, pawns an ivory miniature of his mother in order to pay his weeks rent to his landlady and to buy food. A prosperous looking. fur-collared stranger, whom he saw in the pawn shop, stops Ainsley, takes him to his home, and feeds him.
 The man throws 15 or 20 thousand dollar bills on the table, admits he is a bootlegger and an all-around crook, and attempts to enlist Ainsley as an accomplice. Justly feeling insulted, Ainsley pays the crook for his supper and leaves the room, preferring star vation-ar even suicide-to accepting the other mans propiosal.
