The father and David arrange to get Edwin, who is an artist, to the mountains to prolong his life. David counsels, telling Edwin of his condition, but the father begs that this be not done. Edwin and David arrive in the mountains and Edwin gets engrossed in his painting. He gets Alice, the daughter of their landlady, to pose for him and they fall in love. One day as Edwin is painting, a sportsman comes along with his wife. She offends him and he is brutal with her and is interrupted by the artist, who teaches the bully a lesson. The sportsman, in a fit of rage, deserts his wife. Edwin proposes to Alice and is accepted. He writes and tells his father of his engagement, and the father is distracted. He persuades the family doctor to write to the artist and tell him his condition. This he does and Edwin reads, with a heart turning to ice, that he has about a year to live. He cannot tell Alice. Time goes on and Edwin sinks rapidly under the strain of the deception he is practicing for the girl's sake. She believing him fickle and cowardly, gets interested in David, and one day the unselfish Edwin sees them kiss and knows that he is forgotten. He is overcome and falls and dies.
