A Screen Classic showing the triumph of supreme Christian Faith.
David Graham, whose father was killed in the great coal mine, is a boy of deep religious feeling to which he gives expression in Sunday meetings of the children who listen spell-bound to his boyish sermons until a bad boy shatters their faith because David cannot perform the miracle of making a deaf and dumb girl talk through the faith he expounds.
He is educated by the mine owner and accepts the pastorate of a fashionable church in the city. He is deeply in love with the mine owner's daughter who reciprocates his affection, but his conscience continually urges him to go back to his people of the mines.
The miners feel that proper precautions are not being taken for their safety and send a delegation which interrupts a reception being given in the city by the mine owner, at which David is a guest and takes the part of the miner delegation in an effort to persuade the owner to improve the conditions in his mine. Unsuccessful in this, he leaves the city and goes back to take his place among the miners just as a caye-in at the mine occurred.
Then follow a long series of tremendously dramatic scenes in the mine, showing those imprisoned gradually succumbing to the lack of air and the frantic efforts of the rescuers extending over many hours of time to release them. No stronger sustained suspense can be imagined than is portrayed during this trying ordeal. Its effect upon the families of the miners, upon the officers and owner of the mine and upon the workers, is heart-gripping to every spectator. The final rescue finds hardly a dry eye in the audience.
The supreme thrill comes when the miners move in force to attack the office and the owner. David Graham pleads from the doorway for peaceful methods and the little deaf and dumb girl, now grown to womanhood, miraculously recovers her speech and addresses the astonished and humbled miners for the first time in her Hfe.
This subject is particularly recommended for its high moral tone, not only in the family, but also with religious and other organizations seeking a subject of the uplift type.

The story opens in the town of Oakville in 1900 — a rural community which mistakes the murmur of the village for the roar of the world.

His sufferings culminate when the city school is burned and he is unjustly accused and his father attempts to "whale the truth out of
