THE VIRTUOUS THIEF.

Dick Armitage (Hughes) steals a small sum from his employer, Walter Haskell (Conklin), but confesses the theft prior to its discovery in hopes of leniency. Haskell becomes enamored of Shirley and allows her marked attentions, to the dismay of Bobby Baker (Welch), also in Haskell's employ and Shirley's sweetheart. Dick is unable to raise the sum so his sister Shirley (Bennett) becomes a stenographer to pay back the debt. She steals the confession and is caught by Haskell, who is found dead in his office.
