Welcome Granger Synopsis
Tom Granger is seen finding a boarding house preparatory to entering college. The presence of Nita O'Neill, the landlady's granddaughter, in a poorly furnished one dictates his choice. He meets her a second time when she is serving soda in her grandfather's store, and finds an enemy in Merton Randolph, who repeatedly insults him. They go to the Court, put on the gloves and have a terrific set-to which Tom finally wins. Then Nita and he walk home together.
The Winchester Woman Synopsis
Anne Winchester is acquitted in court of murdering her husband, and leaves her Nashville hometown for a small community on Long Island, NY. She moves into a boarding house and changes her name to Wharton. She soon falls for David Brinton, a widower who owns the place, and her affections are reciprocated. Alan Woodward, who is after David's daughter Julia, recognizes Anne and threatens to expose her if she tries to interfere with his pursuit of Julia, as Anne knows he is only after her money. Anne nevertheless warns Julia about Alan, but Julia refuses to listen. Anne decides that stronger measures must be taken to save the daughter of the man she loves.
"Welcome Granger" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "The Winchester Woman" offers its own unique cult appeal.
