A lawyer, Albert Savarus, descends quietly upon a small town, closed in it's small town ways to the intrusions of outsiders. Nobody notices him until a legal case is inadvertently placed in his hands and he wins it and another and another. He attracts the attention of merchants in the town who give him their cases and that of a young woman who procedes to fall in love with him and thoroughly investigate his mysterious life.
