An impoverished American sailor is fortunate enough to be passing the house of two rich gentlemen who have conceived the crazy idea of distributing a note worth one million pounds.

Ultimately, the money proves to be more troublesome than it is worth when it almost costs him his dignity and the woman he loves.
