Viola is the daughter of James Winters, a small-town banker. Harry is a chauffeur in a small garage in the town. Mr. Winters has higher ambitions for his daughter, and refuses his consent to their marriage, forbidding them to see each other. They confide their troubles to a girl chum of Viola's, who suggests that they see each other at her home. There they meet a Mrs. Curtis. Mrs. Curtis and Viola's father were, at one time, sweethearts, but were separated by her father, she being forced to marry a friend of her father's for financial reasons. Mrs. Curtis is told of the situation and tries to help them. She goes to Viola's father, but fails to gain his consent. Harry and Viola decide to take matters into their own hands. They elope to New York and are married. Her father vows never to let her enter his house again. Her mother is heartbroken. They live in New York with Mrs. Curtis, who has grown very fond of them, and is practically a mother to Viola. A thief enters her home, and during a struggle between Harry and the thief, Mrs. Curtis is accidentally shot and killed. They find, upon reading the will, that she has left everything she has in the world to them. In the meantime, Viola's father has been speculating with the bank's funds, and is caught in the net. The market breaks, and he is ruined. Viola's mother wires her to come home. They arrive in time to cover her father's shortage in the market and a reunion is effected. They return to their old places in the choir, where they pay a last tribute to the woman who was responsible for all their happiness. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
