The young man was a struggling attorney who had long expected to inherit from his uncle, when the uncle suddenly got married for the second time. The uncle, however, shows him that he has been left something. The new wife overhears; she cannot bring herself to destroy the will, but she hides. The uncle drops dead and the will can't be found. The nephew, in financial straits, has to let his stenographer go, for he cannot pay her. The widow, passing in an automobile, attempts to dispose of the will by tearing it in small pieces, which she scatters along the road just as the stenographer is passing. Enough pieces are picked up to show what the papers are and then others are found, and the document is complete. The girl brings it to the man and later they are married by the Rev. John Bunny. The widow's discomfiture, like the whole picture, is finely acted. A very good film. - The Moving Picture World, October 21, 1911
