In search for a wife Seward meets Eileen Orton, who has been left destitute by the death of her father. He makes an agreement to support her if she present herself as his wife at Craver's office. She agrees and Seward secures a position and leaves for South America. The contractor, who has a mania for beautiful women, falls in love with Eileen, but she does not care for him, having become much attracted to Seward, who is sending her half his salary each week for her maintenance. Months later Seward comes to New York to see Eileen and arrives in time to protect her from Craver. The marriage lie no longer necessary, Seward proposes to Eileen, and they are forthwith made man and wife. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
