The Great Problem

Bill Carson is sentenced to twelve years for housebreaking. He vows that he will, upon ending his term, have vengeance upon George Devereaux, the prosecuting attorney, whose speech swayed the jury to conviction. The little daughter of Carson is left in charge of his pal Skinny McGee, when the mother died of shock, because of Carson's conviction. When Skinny dies the girl Peggy turns to picking pockets for a livelihood, Skinny having brought her to proficiency in this line, as her only education. There is a scene pictured in the board rooms of a reform organization. Devereaux accepts a challenge that he cannot take a criminal and reform him by improved and beneficial surroundings. Peggy is brought into a police station on charge of picking pockets, and is chosen to be the one upon whom Devereaux shall practice his experiment. Taking her to his palatial home, Devereaux seeks for two years to train Peggy in the better way
