The ex-convict formerly was Hoctor Cai'.'«u, a pixxspei'ous young surgeon wi th all the world before him. Carson, however, ha.s a weiikiiess foi' dr ink which is slowly hut surely umler- mini i ig his health, his ski l l and hi.s Xiraotice. He also gambles heavily. His xirofessional rival Hr . Grant is a clever sui'gimu, but not XKipulaj- and ha.s li t t le practice. Af ter an al l-night session Hr Carson gets a ’phone message from Mr. Wilson, a prominent citizen whose wife is seriously ill. Hr . Cai'son pulls himself together, ami af ter e-x- i'.miniiig the pat ient tells Wilson, to telexihoiie him if she should get worse as he may have to operate. On the way- home ho meets Dr. Grant and invites him to come home wi th him. Dr .
