Synopsis: [?] [From The Moving Picture World]? Among all her suitors there is none who loves her; they are all after her money. So she leaves the little country town and in the city takes a post as governess to the youngest child of a newly-rich widow, whose son has a position of trust in a business office. The young man falls in love with her, but dares not ask her to marry him because he is unworthy. He has been taking money from his employer’s safe. Discovered, he is threatened with exposure unless he makes restitution, which he is unable to do. The girl learns the facts and reimburses his employer. Discovering what she has done, he comes to thank her, and is told that the governess has been discharged for carelessness. But he finds her again.
