“The Saint” of the village is a rich woman, who lives in a big house and plays Lady Bountiful. She professes herself a Christian and has a great deal to say about the force of her example in the community. “The Sinner” is a young man who does not pose as godly. He even plays cards, and it is whispered about that he is an atheist. To this village comes a broken-hearted girl with her nameless child. “The Saint” hears her story and turns her away. But “The Sinner” takes her in and cares for her and the baby. Her presence in his house creates consternation among the villagers, and their feeling is intensified, when on Sunday “The Sinner” and the strange woman appear at church. Fortunately, the minister of the town is no hypocrite. And through his efforts, the outcast at length is made one of the community.
