Synopsis

An aristocratic but impoverished young Englishman meets an American woman in Britain, but fears he cannot be worthy of her until he has settled his debts. However a self-made American he meets on his ship across the Atlantic offers to help him out financially in exchange for helping him to become a gentleman so that he can woo a woman whose photograph he carries around with him. The Englishman is shocked to discover that it is the same woman he in love with.
