Synopsis

Betsy and Bill want to marry, but her mother opposes the match. Betsy’s Uncle Jim tells them the story of a young man who found out his girlfriend loved another; in the end all three of them separated, unhappily. After Betsy and Bill leave, Jim finishes the story: he was the first young man, who then told Ruth that she should go after the man she really loved. Ruth was Jim’s girlfriend, and she married his brother: Betsy is their daughter.
