Transcription
Plot
As described in a film magazine review,[3] when her husband commits suicide, Dreka Langley leaves her new-born baby with a family in China and falls in love with John Dangerfield, a married man. The two live in the Chinese underworld and Mrs. Dangerfield obtains a divorce. Years later, Dangerfield reforms and seeks seclusion in a Chinese monastery, where he meets and adopts Billy, who is the boy that was deserted by Dreka. Billy is sent to an American college where he meets and falls in love with Shirley, who is Dangerfield's daughter. Billy believes his supposed half-caste nationality is a bar to their marriage, which is removed when Dreka, before dying, identifies Billy as her son. Dangerfield wins back his wife and all ends well.
