The Oath of Hate

Captain Mark Stone of the freighter, Annabel, gets word from his fiancée that she has decided to marry another man. He puts back to port and arrives just after the wedding ceremony. Forcing his way into the house, he faces the girl and swears vengeance, vowing that he will marry and rear children to hate her children as he hates her. Next day her father uses his influence to have Stone discharged. Stone lies in wait for him on the wharf, and through an accident he is injured in the head. A specialist is doubtful whether he will recover his sight. Mindful of his oath, Stone proposes marriage to May Manning, the slavey at his boarding house, and she accepts. Later, their child is born, a girl. At the news, the blind man stumbles from the house in a rage of disappointment, and, meeting with an old shipmate, goes on a voyage with him. One of the crew bears a grudge against Stone, and seeing him helpless, drops him overboard on a dark night. The shock restores his sight. Reaching the shore, he makes his way to a fisherman's cabin, where a doctor, in attendance upon the fisherman's wife, declares that Stone's normal mind, deranged by a former blow on the head, has also been restored. His one idea now is to get back to his wife and child. But they have disappeared from the old home. May, his wife, seeks work to support her child and becomes a dishwasher in a cheap waterfront restaurant. Stone, seeking her, is recognized on the street by his former sweetheart, who, having left her husband for another man, is now an outcast. To avoid her he enters the restaurant and there comes face to face with May. Explanations ensue, and he discovers that the weapon he chose to work evil against the woman he once hated has turned to love in his hands.
