| ~Plot Synopsis~ |
Mr. Wheeler, the head of a temperamental family, hires a former soldier, Clarence, to do odd jobs
around his house. Clarence immediately falls in love with Violet Pinney, the governess, who is
suspected by Mrs. Wheeler to be the object of her husband's affections and resented by Cora. When
Clarence and Violet prevent Cora from eloping with money-seeking Hubert Stem, Mr. Wheeler's
private secretary, Stem finds a clipping about Charles Smith, a deserter. He shows it to Mr. Wheeler
and insists that Charles Smith and Clarence are one and the same. Wheeler is inclined to believe
Stem, since he has noticed his wife's admiring glances toward Clarence. But a letter arrives revealing
Clarence to be a university professor about to regain his position; Violet accepts him, and all are
reconciled.
