when, acceding to the wishes ot her
guardians. Judge Judson Marshbanks
and Emma Haskell, she becomes the
secretary of Mrs.
Porteous
Porter,
wealthy San Francisco Invalid, llusy as
she Is. Cherry sees the Judge from lime
Io time and meets the members ot his
household; his dictatorial old mother!
Amy Marshbanks, debutante daughter ot
his dead brother Fred: and Fran, his
gay young second wife.
Cherry soon
learns through Emma that her mother
(never married) had been Emma's sis
ter Charlotte; that her father was the
judge’s brother Fred—Amy's father—
and that shortly after Cherry and Amy
were born. Cherry’» mother had switched
the two babies. Cherry 1» really Amy
Marshbanks: The Judge confirms the
amaiing story but to protect Amy his
mother burns certain papers that would
have proved Its truth. Meanwhile Cher
ry had fallen In love with Kelly Coates,
a young artist (who tor a time had
been Infatuated with Fran Marshbanks);
and Amy Is determined to marry Count
Mario (Gogo) Constantino. The Judge Is
shot to death In his library and every
body Is under suspicion.
Kelly Anally
convinces Cherry that he Is over bls
Infatuation for Fran and she happily
agrees to marry him. Amy flies to Reno
to marry Gogo. Cherry discovers there
are gunpowder marks on Fran's negli
