Synopsis
Respected scholar Gregory Vance (John Barrymore) falls to pieces upon the death of his wife, descending into drunken irresponsibility. Despite his being reduced to working as a night watchman, his loyal children, Donald (Peter Holden) and Joan (Virginia Weidler), know that he can regain his dignity. The opportunity arises when the press discovers that Gregory is the last uncommitted voter in the district, and the mayor sends out his political boss to ensure that Gregory votes correctly.
