Man's Woman Synopsis

Violet Galloway, in charge of her grandfather's home, was accustomed to bossing things. But when she married Roger Kendall she was petted and pampered and had hardly anything to do outside of looking pretty and being well dressed. So she became discontented. At this time George W. Graham, a former lover, made violent love to her. Graham was district attorney and Kendall was Graham's assistant. Kendall was prosecuting the gamblers, but Graham tried to call him off when political pressure was brought to bear. The gamblers decided to "get" Kendall. Graham knew of the secret and a man who had been befriended by Violet found this out. The man sent a note to Violet. She risked everything by getting Graham to come to her home and was learning the secret from him when the murderer hired by the gamblers shot and killed Graham, thinking he was Kendall. Kendall, being told what his wife had done for him, turns out his maiden aunts, who created much of the trouble, and he and his wife are happy once more.
