Frances, at the age of sixteen, is left an orphan. Her mother left a letter asking the uncle, Henry Bisbee, to take care of the daughter. He, much against his will, decides to accept the trust if it is a boy. Frances disguises as a boy and goes to her uncle, who receives her coldly. She loves flowers, books and pretty things. The uncle finds a mirror and powder puff in her bureau and accuses the supposed boy of being a "sissy." "Jerry the Rat" tries to rob the house and is prevented by Frances. The noise calls everybody to the scene and Frances faints. Her sex is discovered, but the uncle has learned to love her and forgives her. He then reveals the tragic story of his love for her mother and the duplicity of his brother, Tom. Dick Truesdale, who is the only young man the crabbed old uncle would tolerate at his home, finds a great charm in Frances, when she is supposed to be a boy. When he discovers she is a girl, he tells her of his love and finds it is reciprocated. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
