Synopsis

George Belgrave is guided by George Washington's principles of integrity and honesty. He exposes his cousin Dolly's fiancé, Count Tyrola, to be a bogus count and an internationally sought criminal, who, as the leader of the Vassalini gang, steals a secret treaty from George's father, a United States senator. It is Tyrola's intention to use the treaty to cause political strife in Bessarabia. George, his friend Bob, and Ham, the Negro butler, subdue the Vassalini gang and, after recovering the treaty, lock them up. Tyrola's treachery is revealed seconds before the wedding ceremony. George, to save his father embarrassment, tells his only lie in giving him credit for the whole "plan" to capture Tyrola. Cousin Dolly marries friend Bob.
