The Story
MAY BRENNAN, an orphan, has been brought up by Nick and Jerry
the Gent, two high class crooks, but is inclined to be honest despite their teachings. The three have noticed that Mary bears a strong resemblance to Margaret Waring, an heiress, and Nick and Jerry plan to rob the Waring mansion.
Mary has been persuaded against her will to do this “job.”” However, she steals into Margaret’s bedroom, while the girl is at a charity ball, and dons one of her dresses. A policeman, noticing Nick and Jerry climbing to the roof, tells the Waring butler, who immediately goes up to Margaret’s bedroom. Mary, posing as Margaret, assures him that nothing is wrong— that Mrs. Wells, with whom she had gone to the ball, became sick and they returned Mrs. Wells’ son, George, going past the house, notices the policeman and investigates. At first, he, also, is misled by Mary’s disguise, but senses a difference and falls in love with her. Mary gets rid of him and the French maid, and tackles the safe with the aid of Nick and Jerry, whom she had let into the room.
When Margaret arrives home, she sees the crooks. Jerry fires at her, but Mary jumps in front of her. However, Margaret is wounded and unconscious. Mary quickly dresses Margaret in her old clothes. She fools everyone into believing Margaret is the crook, but George notices that a ring he had given Margaret is not on Mary’s hand, but the unconscious girl’s hand. He knows Mary is the crook, but because he loves her, he protects her.
Through a medal on Mary’s neck, Margaret discovers that she is a long lost twin sister. The prosecution is dropped and George’s proposal is ac
