To one, Rossi, is given for safe keeping plans of intended improvements. The other, Fleury, photographs the papers and sells them to a rival maker. Of course Rossi is blamed and discharged. He is compelled to go to another country to secure work. While arranging the correspondence of his new employer he comes across the photograph and a letter in the handwriting of Fleury. Immediately Rossi starts back to his native town, taking the incriminating papers with him. On his return he learns that Fleury and Beatrix, his former sweetheart, are to be married in twenty-four hours at the home of Fleury's uncle, on the other side of the mountains. He misses the conveyance that would enable him to reach the place on time. He determines to cross the mountain on foot. He struggles through the snow. He is arrested by a customs official. Being permitted to join the customs men in their sports he is seen excavating the snow from the trunk of a lay figure. Then we see the ball rolling down the slope, striking the water, and the man emerging. A mountaineer gives him dry clothing. When the officers reach the house Rossi jumps through the window, and on a cable with a pulley attachment swings rapidly to the valley below. As he takes a train out of the mountain hamlet there is shown the wedding party witnessing the legal formalities. Before these preliminaries are concluded Rossi enters and denounces Fleury. . The wedding does not take place and the guests depart. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
