    Desc: To Honor and Obey: Directed by Otis Turner. With Gladys Brockwell, Bertram Grassby, Charles Clary, Josef Swickard. Lorrie Hollis marries flamboyant Richard Hallam. When Hallam soon loses his fortune in stock-market speculation, he appeals to Lorrie to beseech her former suitor, wealthy broker Marc Patton, for help, and she does, sacrificing her virtue for her husband's wealth. His money regained, he forgets the great sacrifice that his wife made for him and neglects her for the companionship of Rose Delvane, finally driving Lorrie from the house with his abuse. Seething from Hallam's unjust treatment of Lorrie, Patton crushes his rival in a stock battle. His fortune again lost, Hallam is deserted by Rose. Bereft of money, respect, and love, he kills himself, thus freeing Lorrie to begin a new life with Patton.
