Lily is sent to Spring Valley, to live with Prudence and Samantha, boyhood friends of Maynard. Hugh Graham, a young lawyer friend of Maynard's, finding business very poor, takes a class in the Spring Valley district school for the summer. Lily, now sixteen, is sent to school and falls in love with Hugh. He confiscates a note written by her to another pupil, which reads, "Isn't Hughie the sweetest thing? I just love him." Lily is very angry, and refuses to say good-bye to Hugh when he leaves the school, while he dreams of nothing but the fascinating little school girl. Two years later. Hugh, who is now prosperous, is told by Maynard that he has spent all of Lily's money. Not knowing Maynard has already written to Samantha, telling her all about it. Hugh sacrifices everything he has of value to restore the money to Lily, and then finds his old friend, Maynard, dead in his chair. Hugh visits Spring Valley to straighten matters out with the two old ladies, and tries to impress upon them that Lily's money is intact. They only smile, and appreciate his well-meant sacrifice, show him Maynard's confession. He then asks for Lily, who has been listening outside, but she bashfully runs away to the old schoolhouse. Hugh follows her, takes her unresistingly in his arms, and Uncle Si joyfully spreads the news that Hugh and Lily are engaged to be married. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
