Synopsis
In a Southern town, Don Morley is apparently the sole witness to a gunfight during which his friend, Lee Dillingham, badly wounds Sheely. To avoid testifying against Lee, Don leaves town, but after he is gone, Lee double-crosses Don and blames him for the shooting. Then, Don's sweetheart, Miss Lady, heartbroken to learn that Don is a criminal, marries the elderly Professor Querrington. To take her mind off her mundane marriage, Miss Lady befriends a mute boy and pays for an operation that restores his speech. The professor dies, and soon after Don, unaware of his alleged guilt, returns to town to find himself charged with Lee's crime. A guilty verdict in his trial seems assured until Miss Lady's young friend, now able to speak, announces that he too had witnessed the gunfight, and that it was Lee who wounded Sheely. Then, with his name cleared and his sweetheart once again single, Don marries Miss Lady.
