Synopsis
Smalltown bank clerk Billy Jenks comes to New York in search of greater opportunity and becomes a cashier in a department store, where he meets stenographer Phoebe Howard. When both lose their jobs, Billy wires his aunt, but he learns that she has died and left him a fortune in bonds. The couple then plan to marry, and on a bus their conversation is overheard by Harry Brent, a crook who arranges to "help" them. When, however, the bonds are stolen by John Carter, who is desperately in debt, Billy mistakes Fiske, his creditor, for the thief. In a series of chases, notes and bonds are exchanged to the satisfaction of all parties.
