Synopsis
Taking pity on Patches, a little waif clothed in tattered rags, Colonel Silverthorne takes her in and raises her with his own children, Lee and Juliet, who are to be heirs to the estate of his dead brother. Patches grows to adulthood and falls in love with Jack Merry, a cotton buyer from the North. One day Waggles, an old tramp whom Patches had befriended as a young girl, appears with a locket identifying Patches as Selma Silverthorne, heiress to the plantation. Hoping to protect his inheritance, Lee tries to destroy the locket, but Jack and Waggles thwart the scheme to defraud Patches by wringing a confession from Judas, an unscrupulous overseer who had stolen the infant Patches from the Silverthornes. Her future thus secured, Patches marries Jack.
