Elias has also disinherited his son Collin. One of the babies now being cared for belongs to Sally May, the bride of Collin and a former orphanage inmate. Drusilla is brought into court because she has taken the child. Sally May is arrested for having left her husband, the reason being that his former fiancée influenced her to do so.
