The Web of Life Synopsis

The story tells of a wayward boy who thought he loved dissipation and evil ways better than a life of decency and clean living. He really did not intend to marry the girl and thought for a time his life was ruined because her childhood sweetheart, still devoted, became her protector, and saw to it that every formality prescribed by society was carefully followed. But instead of ruining his life, it ultimately made him a real man and brought out the good there was in him. The girl did not know how to win her husband back to her when his evil associates began to appeal to him again after the marriage and the birth of the child, and the appeal she was forced to make to her former sweetheart and her only friend brought on a terrible misunderstanding and tragedy which cost her friend his life in a noble sacrifice and nearly lost for her all chance of a loving reunion with her husband. However the purity of her devotion and her trustful innocence were strong enough to endure against suspicion and much abuse, so that at the end we see the repentant husband chastened by the trouble and anguish he has caused and fully determined to devote himself to honorable living and the care and companionship of his reunited family.
