Modern Husbands Synopsis

When wealthy Wall Street stockbroker Stephen Duane neglects his wife Julia for business, she consorts with philanderer Bert Brockwell. Finding them in an embrace forced by Brockwell, Stephen denounces Julia and leaves. After losing his fortune in the market, Stephen refuses Julia's offer to sell her jewels, and stays away for one year, while she opens a successful millinery store and has a baby. Despondent, Stephen decides to shoot himself, but when he hazily imagines Julia entering and catching his dead body, he drops the gun and decides to renew his life. After Jonathan Cosgrove, a friend, gives him $5,000 and a room in his home, Stephen discovers Brockwell in Mrs. Cosgrove's bedroom, forcing himself on her. Stephen hurls Brockwell through the window and then, to save Mrs. Cosgrove's reputation, allows Jonathan to think that he is the guilty party. After Mrs. Cosgrove discovers that Brockwell is a forger, she confesses to Jonathan, and arranges a meeting between Stephen and his wife and son that ends happily.
