Henry, a man who loves gold above all else, has, by shrewd bargaining and miserly ways, accumulated enough money to pay a debt that one of the neighbors holds against him. This money he has secreted in the chimney of his parlor. While assisting his son one day to put hay in the barn a stone jug falls on his head, depriving him of his memory. His son has been forbidden to speak to the girl, he loves by the father who holds the note in question. The note falls due but the old man cannot recollect where he placed the money. Ethel, the girl, clandestinely calls on the boy and as they are seated in the parlor the tea kettle commences to boil over. Ethel, in trying to lift it from the stove, accidentally displaces a brick, revealing the hiding place of the money. The father's memory returns; he pays the note and consents to the union of the boy and girl.
