Young editor saves Stanhope Press during family illness
Archer Trevford steps up as temporary editor of the Stanhope Press while his father recovers from brain fever. Betts scheming at the rival Herald sparks a plan to run a serial story contest to boost circulation, raise funds, and stave off bankruptcy. Archer’s forged push turns into success, paying off a mortgage and securing his promotion to editor with Beebee as assistant.
