Lillian's Husbands

• Watchlist

Lillian has never seen her guardian, who is said to be rather eccentric, and as she is holding a suffragette meeting at her home she receives a letter from him saying he would be pleased to hear she was happily married and that he is glad she is not a suffragette. Her girl friends advise Lillian to write him she is married. She does so. and he writes he is coming in person to congratulate her. Lillian, to continue the game, shows Turner (guardian) a photo of Jack, her friend Mollie's fiancé, but makes a blunder which causes Turner to set a detective on Jack's track. An exasperating but ludicrous mix-up follows, which leaves Turner more mystified than ever. Lillian, desperate, hires a man to marry her and then disappear. The man goes on a spree with the money and gives the game away to Turner, who has fallen in love with Lillian, so he takes the fellow's place and marries Lillian in disguise. Then he reveals his identity, and Lillian with a happy sigh, nestles in his arms.
