Adam, the eldest of seven brothers, goes to town to get a wife to make him decent food. Meeting Milly, he convinces her to marry him that same day and come to his backwoods home. On discovering that she has become a servant for seven brothers, Milly decides to set out to find wives for her six brothers-in-law.
