Synopsis by Dan Pavlides
This implausible melodrama finds a respected banker sent to jail after being set up by a dishonest teller. The crook tries to swindle a widow out of her inherited marble quarry. Babs (Baby Margaret Brown) is rescued by Charlie (Donald Gallagher) from drowning and saves the residents of a cabin from a landslide. A mysterious wanderer (Louis Wolhelm) turns out to be an undercover agent for the Justice Department who is investigating the bank scam, and the bank president is cleared and is reunited with the grateful widow. The title is taken from the popular song written by J.L. Molloy.
