While a priest sits in his room he hears his doorbell ring. He can discover no one, but finally admits a girl who seemed to be drenched to the skin. He goes with her to administer the sacraments to a dying man. She leads him to the tenement district, where the priest finds that the police are searching for a murderer, but knowing the priest, they let him pass, not seeming to notice the girl. She stops at a house, but the landlord declares that there is no one occupying his rooms, but the girl leads the priest up the stairs to a small bedroom where a man is found to be mortally wounded. He is surprised to see the priest, who wishes to call a physician, but the dying man only asks that he administer the sacraments. The priest, this office done, asks the dying man what he wants to do about his daughter, but the dying man says his daughter died years ago, and since then he has been drinking heavily. On the table is a picture of the girl who lead the priest to the house, and the dying man declares she has been acting as a daughter to him for some time. When the police enter the room the priest gently tells them that they have no need for the man as he is dead.
