NotesRather odd melodrama which starts with a soldier writing love letters for another soldier while serving in Italy. The second soldier on returning home marries the woman who has fallen in love with his letters. But he turns out to be a violent drunk. He is killed by her stepmother. The shock results in amnesia for the wife, and then the stepmother has a stroke which leaves her speaking impaired. The wife is accused of her husband's murder and sentenced. But the soldier who wrote the letters hears about the murder and comes to the rescue. From the book by Chris Massie, Pity, Mr. Simplicity.
