Gentlemanly conman Silas Burton shows up in Abbeyvale with his new young assistant in tow. He smooth-talks the town's merchants and politicians into staging "Remembrance Day," a celebration of Christmas during June. All he asks is a hefty fee to be paid by the stores for the increase in business he guarantees them. Getting in the way of his flimflam is his assistant's love for a local girl and a couple of clergymen who are onto his scheme.
