Plot
As described in a film magazine review,[2] Wayne Sturgis of Wyoming while visiting New York City meets and weds Joan Prescott, a Greenwich Village art student making a living by modeling. His wealthy father disowns him as a result of the marriage. They live on a small farm where the hard work brings disillusionment, unhappiness, and ill health to Joan. Trouble also arises due to the attentions paid to the young wife by a neighbor, Monte Brett. Wayne desperately struggles to make good and wins some much needed money by staying three rounds with a champion pugilist. Brett attempts to make love to Joan but is repulsed by her. In the finale, the father is reconciled and forgives the young couple, who find happiness with each other.
