Clay Dollars Synopsis
Bruce Edwards returns to his hometown to take possession of his late father's estate, but Sam Willetts presents him with documentation proving that Mr. Edwards traded the estate for worthless swampland. Bruce takes a job in the village tavern and romances June Gordon, whose mother suspects Willetts of foul play. When Willets falsely accuses Bruce of theft, the young man escapes. Bruce later regains his father's estate by convincing Willets that the swampland is valuable for manufacturing purposes. Afterward, June and Bruce leave on their honeymoon.
As Man Made Her Synopsis

Out of revenge, Grace marries Harold, Mason's younger brother and the two couples live together under one roof. Mason tires of his wife and begs Claire to leave her husband, but she is pregnant and refuses. An indifferent mother, Claire leaves her child with a nurse while she spends her time with Mason in cabarets. When Claire and Harold are reconciled after the near fatal illness of their child, Mason, furious, divulges Claire's sordid past to his brother. Although overwhelmed by the revelation, Harold forgives Claire and Mason, rejected, turns to alcohol.
"Clay Dollars" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "As Man Made Her" offers its own unique cult appeal.
