The Honor of Thieves

Two thieves, Ned and Mike, scheme to rob a pawnbroker, Mr. Einstein. Ned seduces Einstein's daughter Rachel to aid their plan, but during the attempted burglary they tie up both victims and set a candle to burn the shop. Rachel frees herself and courageously overpowers the thieves and restores her father's honor.
