She knows nothnig of life outside her gloomy home—and nothing of men at all, Walter McGrail is the likeable Clive Grenfal who has left his past behind him and come to Canada to forget and stert over again. He is distrustful of all humanity, par- ticularly women, because of his experiences and is—he thinks— a fugitive from justice. Robert Cain is cast as Henry Fredericks, the man who has broken up Clive’s home and. who Jater almost ruins his life by his} unjust accusations.
