In leading his regiment in a desperate charge be is felled by a blow on the head and left in the field as dead. Eventually he is picked up and taken to a hospital. His memory has gone and soon afterwards he loses his identity and is posted as “missing.” Thereafter be becomes a wanderer on the face of the earth. Virginia refuses to believe him dead, and waits patiently through the years for his return. He has gone up and down the country as an itinerant peddler, forgetful of his former identity. Now, after years of restless moving about, some irresistible desire seizes him and he returns to his old home, finding it in spite of himself. As he comes upon the scene of his earlier life the faithful Virginia is set upon by a thieving tramp. Robert rushes to her rescue, and the blow he receives in the ensuing fight eventually restores his memory. After all the years the good lovers meet again at the old gate in the glowing twilight of Indian Summer, never now to part until death does them separate. |
