He is in love with Hazel of the chorus, who regards him rather disdainfully. She marries him, however, at the conclusion of a wild night, then she separates from him and tells him he must earn a living before she will live with him. The trustees of Vernon's vast heritage learn of the marriage and, by virtue of the will, cut off his allowance. It is the girl's rejection of him, more than the loss of the money, that wakes Vernon up to a proper estimation of himself. He staggers his old-time friends by going to work in partnership with a fashionable tailor. His reputation draws the moneyed crowds and before long he is enabled to tell the trustees to "keep their money." Hazel comes back to him. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
