The Reclaimed Father and His Praying Child

A distressed husband, Charles Hansom, falls into alcohol abuse after his wife’s death. His daughter Mary’s nightly prayers plead for his reform, prompting a brutal night at the tavern that ends with a violent departure. After the beating, a sober vow to quit drinking leads to repentance, civil rehabilitation, and a bright family future. Mary’s steadfast faith restores the broken home, and Hansom becomes a respected figure once more.
