Tillie Getz (Minter), the eldest daughter of Jacob Getz (Beery), a brutal, driving father, lives in a Pennsylvania Mennonite village. Her Mennonite aunt leaves a will by the terms of which Tillie will inherit a small fortune if she has joined the Mennonite church by age eighteen. A plot is hatched by the lawyer (Cooper) who drew up the will and an attempt is made to force Tillie into a marriage with Absalom Puntz (Anderson), an undesirable young man, sharing her fortune being its end. Through the kindly machinations of Doc Weaver (Littlefield), the efforts of her father, the lawyer, Absalom, and, innocently, the Mennonite elders are frustrated and a happy marriage for Tillie provides a proper ending.
