Scattergood meets the new owner of the local newspaper, Dunker Gillson. One of Gillson's first tasks is to interview the wealthy but reclusive Quentin sisters, Lydia and Cynthia, who have stayed in their old musty house for years. The somewhat sinister Mrs. Grimes, the sisters' housekeeper, refuses to let Gillson talk to the sisters. Later, when the sisters' beloved cat takes ill, Mrs. Grimes insists on driving them to town in their horse-and-buggy outfit. An accident occurs on the way to town and the sisters are killed. At the reading of the will, everyone is surprised and shocked at the sisters' stipulations regarding their fortune.
