Uncle Daniel Ponder may be a bit simple, but his heart is made of gold, and so is his fortune, but he's always giving things away. His niece Edna Earle keeps a watchful eye on him as he falls in love with 17-year-old Bonnie Dee. The young girl gives him a "trial marriage" and then leaves Uncle Daniel with a broken heart. But why is gentle Uncle Daniel being charged for murder?
