- Henry Calverly was once a famous author. When his mother-in-law had killed her husband, Calverly's wife Cecily had tried to shield her mother from the crime. Calvery in turn had tried to shield Cecily. The couple became fugitives, but after his wife died, Calverly was captured and sentenced for evading justice. Now using the assumed name of Stafford, he works for a city newspaper. After he exposes the mayor's corruption, the trustees of the Cantey estate, who own the mayor, have Stafford fired. Marjorie Daw, who writes a column for the paper, goes through old newspaper files and discovers Stafford's real identity. She then gets Stafford an assignment of writing a biography of the deceased Cantey. One of Cantey's daughters, Esther, is dissatisfied with her father's will because it leaves the bulk of the estate to her invalid sister Miriam. So Esther decides to work with the crooked trustees against Miriam's interests. Stafford falls for Miriam, and discovers she is being swindled. In a miraculous development, Stafford embraces Miriam, and the invalid suddenly regains her ability to walk. Miriam and Stafford dispose of the dishonest trustees of her estate.—scsu1975
