The Awakeing of Silas Marston
A stern man Silas Marston dominates his life with discipline and rigidity. A forged cheque scandal links a factory firm Clifford and Rice to a teen worker accused of theft, while his father’s abrupt exile forces the boy toward crime. The jury convicts, but Silas’s plea for mercy and a final appeal to justice lead to a mercy-grounded verdict and the father taking his son home.
