Toutefois, après avoir sauvé d'un incendie Ruth Heckett, la fille de son ami Joe, un oiseleur de Londres mais aussi un cambrioleur, il change d'état d'esprit et se marie avec elle. Ruth et Jack embarquent dans un steamer pour l'Amérique pour retrouver des témoins du mariage de ses parents et ainsi prouver son droit à l'héritage, Bos, un des complices de Joe, offre à Ruth une bible qu'il a volée à Cragsnest. Ce qu'ils ne savent pas, c'est que cette bible contient le certificat de mariage des parents de Jack, certificat que Royston recherche lui aussi, mais pour le détruire. Jack est attiré hors du bateau par Laura, une bohémienne sous le charme de Royston, matraqué, drogué, et jeté à l'eau, mais Bos réussit à le sauver. À Southampton, le steamer fait naufrage, ils sauvent Ruth, qui a entre-temps découvert le certificat, et d'autres passagers, pendant que Royston et Laura se noient.

In a decaying mansion overlooking the Hudson River, millionaire Cyrus West approaches death. His greedy family descends upon him like "cats around a canary", causing him to become insane. West orders that his last will and testament remain locked in a safe and go unread until the 20th anniversary of his death. As the appointed time arrives, West's lawyer, Roger Crosby (Tully Marshall), discovers that a second will mysteriously appeared in the safe. The second will may only be opened if the terms of the first will are not fulfilled. The caretaker of the West mansion, Mammy Pleasant (Martha Mattox), blames the manifestation of the second will on the ghost of Cyrus West, a notion that the astonished Crosby quickly rejects.
