'Keith is to marry a girl with whom his friend Mark is also in love. While she is absent abroad Mark causes Keith to break a promise made to her that he will not take intoxicants, well knowing that with drink he will become utterly degraded. Later Mark's treachery comes to light. In the delirium of drink Keith kills him, but when he comes to his senses he does not recall his crime, and endeavours to hunt down the murderer of his friend. With a return to drink he has a tragic realisation that he is the murderer.'
