THE LUBIN BULLETIN T LUBIN FILMS The Attorney’s Decision TWO REEL FEA TURE written 'by'M. B. HAVEY A LICE WEST gives up her sweetheart, John Travers, a young lawyer, to marry Norris Dacre, a broker, who holds her father’s fortune and reputation in the hollow of his hand. John is heartbroken, but five years later is elected District Attorney. He / \ meets Alice and learns that she is an unhappy and neglected wife. The State inaugurates an investigation against crooked 4 ll brokers. Alice’s husband is on the list and John receives valuable evidence from one of Dacre’s dupes. At this time Dacre is interested in Mimi, a dancer, much to the jealousy of her lover, a violin player, at the cafe. Dacre’s friends offer John a bribe which is refused. Then Alice goes and intercedes and John promises to be lenient. That night she discovers her husband’s crook- edness and knowing that she had turned John away from his duty tells him to prosecute her husband to the full extent of the law. Dacre follows and learning of the situation threatens to drag his wife and the district attorney through the disgrace of a divorce suit. To save Alice, John wishes to destroy the papers, but she will not let him do this. Dacre goes to Mimi at the cafe and gets into a quarrel with the violinist, her lover, who believes the two intend to go to Europe. In a fury the violinist shoots and kills the other man. John destroys the evidence against Dacre and Alice gives her heart and hand when her old-time lover calls a little later. CAST Rosemary Theby Harry C. Myers Brinsley Shaw Alice West .
