He rushes around a corner almost colliding with Officer Carney, who looks carefully at him, and being ignorant of the murder, lets him pass. Stirling, in disguise, meets Beryl Tracy at the country club and they are attracted to each other, much to the discomfort of Hal Wright, who has been the favorite with Beryl. Under the name of Somers, Stirling gets into the girl's confidence and visits the Tracy house. Beryl's parents look with disfavor upon Somers, preferring Wright for their daughter. On the other hand, Beryl treats Wright indifferently and evidences her infatuation for Somers. Maggie, the maid in the Tracy home, has a sweetheart, who is a policeman. Officer Carney is the blue-coated Romeo. Maggie tells him the family will be out to a dinner on the evening in question, and Carney says he will be on duty at the kitchen at the required time. As soon as Beryl and her parents leave to keep the dinner engagement, Maggie goes to Beryl's boudoir and tries on Beryl's new dress which Maggie has admired. She removes a letter which Beryl had tucked inside the folds of the dress. The letter is from Somers and to the effect that Beryl and he are to elope that evening. In the meantime, Beryl has left the dinner party using the pretext that she is ill. Maggie calls Wright on the telephone and tells him to hurry to Beryl's home at once. Then she calls in Carney who is near the back door. Heavily veiled, she allows Somers to embrace her, and when she knows that Carney is near, unmasks. Somers is taken aback. Carney enters, and after a hard battle, subdues Somers, whom he recognizes as a murderer. Beryl then realizes, and she goes to Wright's arms. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
