He is on his return home when, in crossing a busy street, he is struck by an automobile in which is the assistant paymaster of a large contracting concern, who is carrying a suit case full of money with which to pay off the men employed in the construction of a large building. The sudden stoppage of the automobile throws the suit case containing the money into close proximity with that of the young draftsman. Strangely enough, the two cases are of exactly the same pattern, and in the confusion attendant on the accident one is mistaken for the other, the young paymaster picking up the draftsman's suit case and vice versa. When each reaches his destination the mistake is discovered, to the amazement of one and the dismay of the other. We see in the picture the result of this complication, in the suspicion cast upon the young paymaster and also in the struggle which goes on in the mind of the man who has become the possessor of the money. The latter, whose widowed mother is living in such extreme poverty that she is on the point of pawning her wedding ring and some other pieces of jewelry to purchase the necessaries of life, is strongly tempted to keep what has fallen into his hands, but his mother's counsel prevails and he seeks out the owner of the money. By a peculiar coincidence the pretty sister of the assistant paymaster had met the draftsman just after the accident and helped bind his wounded hand. When he returns the bag to the police station they meet again and finally, when the contractor to whom the money belonged, and who had recognized in the young man's mother the widow of a friend of his younger days, rewards our young friend by giving him a good position, he meets her frequently, the result being the usual happy ending.
