Movie Info

Young Johnny Brent (William Fox) tricks another boy at his school into giving him a powerful magnet. When the magnet gets Johnny into trouble, he decides to give it away. He meets a medical inventor (Meredith Edwards), who is holding auctions for the hospital, and decides to give the man the magnet anonymously. As Johnny continues to feel guilty for taking the boy's magnet, he runs away to Liverpool, where the magnet comes back to him in an unexpected way.
