Description:

Richard Hutton, an ex-convict, is exceedingly fortunate when Richard Olwell fails dead at his feet after an altercation, that he is not convicted of murder. Instead, he literally and figuratively steps into the dead man’s shoes by the simple ruse of exchanging clothes and shaving his beard. His disguise seems complete; neither the pollen nor the dead man”s confidential clerk nor his wife penetrate it. But inevitable complications arise. the situation “gets on his nerves,” and he makes a full confession. Even this confession does not destroy the new found happiness that his new circumstances have brought him.
