   The Story  

Audiences love this takeoff of an old fashioned melodrama! When a beautiful young girl is found on the walk outside the Vandenburgh home, she is carried inside. She is suffering from a complete loss of memory. I dentification in her purse reveals only that her name is Spring Overton. That black hearted rogue, Talbot Twillingham, takes one glance at the chaste young heroine and decides that she will be chased as well. He reckons without the presence of a manly hero, Casper Vandenburgh. When Spring repulses Talbot's advances he shoots old Sylverster Vandenburgh and places the blame on Spring. Talbot drugs Spring with a rare poison. Of course Spring is rescued in the nick of time by Casper. Folks everywhere revel in hissing the scoundrel and cheering the hero.
