Childhood sweethearts Terry and Fred become engaged when he returns from serving in the war, but she finds him changed, and postpones their wedding. While Fred is away on business, Terry is persistently courted by Jeff. She eventually falls for him and writes Fred a good-bye letter. News comes that Fred’s been in an accident: he’s blind, and can’t read Terry’s letter. She tells him it says she wants to marry him right away. Jeff leaves her a note: he’s stepping aside. Terry marries Fred and finds “a certain peace of mind” caring for him, but will always love Jeff.
