His father disowns him and forbids him from coming home until he can make a man of himself. Horatio makes friends with Mickey, the small son of a pick-pocket named Blacky. The child prevails on Manly to quit drinking alcoholic liquor and become a fireman. Horatio also becomes friendly with Alice Doran, a dressmaker who lives in the upper part of the house where he and Mickey live. Blacky has been doing time, and, when he is released, he tries to make Mickey become a crook. In a struggle with the boy and Alice, Blacky starts a fire in the building that is home for the other three. Manly’s company answers the alarm and Manly rescues Alice and the boy. Blacky is killed and young Manly and his father are reconciled as a result of his heroism.Cast
