Synopsis: [?] [From The Moving Picture World]? ’Twas Sunday in the park. “I bet she’s worth a million,” he murmured to silent exultation, as he slipped on the ring. ’Twas Monday morning. She was a “stingy-grafter” and he a lawyer with a bad case of pawn or starve. Who would a thought it? But it takes a lawyer to start things. He did with the office across the way, where his “stingy-grafter” grafted. He reached rock bottom.
