Plot
As described in a film magazine,[3] John Haynes (Hart), a lumberman known as "Hardwood," receives a letter informing him that he has inherited a business establishment in New Orleans. Surprised, although pleasantly so, he goes to that city to look over his heritage and finds that the business consists of a shop merchandising ladies' ware. In charge of the shop is Rosalie Andre (Shannon), whom he lets continue with the management of the store, with Hardwood John boarding with Judge Clay Emerson Meredith (Whitman) and keeping his identity secret. Caroline (Westover), the Judge's granddaughter, soon attracts John's attention, and mutual love ripens. Rosalie comes to grief at the hands of one Wayne Page (Webb), the dissolute son of a rich family who is also a rival for the hand of Caroline, and John is required to use force to see that Wayne does the wronged young woman justice. John and Caroline then look forward to their own happiness.
