His father schemes with the housekeeper to bring the two together, and when the girl returns from boarding school, where she has been declared incorrigible, he punishes' her by making her help with the housework. Under the housekeeper's domination, with his approval, the girl is little better than a slavey, but Morgan cautions the woman not to "overdo" it. She does go too far, however, and John, the girl hater, comes to the rescue of beauty in distress by taking the girl away and marrying her. His father, who has watched his every move, waits until the knot is safely tied and then explains. John, aghast, stammers, "I forgot myself." But it is too late. Written by
