For the Love of Mike

Mary is the sole caretaker of her crippled brother, Tom. Mary falls in love with the hero in the book she so often reads to Tom and dreams of loving such a character in life. Her employer ardently admires Mary, and desires her for his wife. Tom one day visits the quarry owned by his sister's employer, and there meets Mike, a robust, kind Irishman, who invites the little cripple to share his lunch and opinions. A fast friendship springs up between the two. On another visit the boy ventures too near a dangerous point in the quarry, and is slightly injured and stunned by a flying piece of stone. Mike is the first to reach him. Mike takes him home, and for the first time learns of Mary in the boy's delirium. He stays by Tom until Mary returns from the office. At their meeting a mutual interest springs up between the two, which is fostered by a further acquaintance and soon develops into love. Shortly after the incident, Murray proposes to Mary, offering her wealth, luxury and ease if she will marry him. For the love of Mike she sacrifices all, and refuses. A little later Murray rides out to the quarry with Mary, where she meets Tom. The interest taken in each other by the two convinces Murray that Mike is the obstacle in his path. He discharges Mike. But for the love of Mike the men all quit, and refuse to return to work until he is reinstated. The superintendent telephones Murray, telling him of the occurrence. Murray refuses, but when he sees the contracts on his desk necessitating the work to be completed within a stated time, he consents to the reinstatement of Mike. Mike asks Tom whether he consents and Tom does for the love of Mike.
