A Mother's Confession is a 1915 silent film written and directed by Ivan Abramson, and starring Christine Mayo and Austin Webb.
[1] Typical of Ivan Abramson's exploitation dramas, this film chooses to explore the ills of illegal marriage.
Henry Patterson, played by Otto Kruger, is married to Lola (Christine Mayo) and living in Chicago with their young son Harold.
But Henry also marries rich heiress Louise Douglas in Denver (where he finds his mining interests to be worthless) to save his family from poverty.
[6] Chadwick Pictures re-released a re-edited version of the film in 1920 as A Wife's Story.
