The fight for the Fair millions has been reopened, despite the recent settlement which was supposed to have satisfied all parties. New evidence has been discovered, so the mother of Mrs. Fair claims, that shows conclusively that the millionaire victim of the tragic auto accident died many minutes before his wife. Other witnesses stand ready to testify this fact, the proof of which would take the entire fortune away from Mr. Fair's high society relatives and give it to Mrs. Fair's humble village mother and family. Meanwhile the fight is made three-cornered by the arrival of fresh claimants on the scene. They are cousins of the dead millionaire and claim a legal title to the property.
