Keeper of the Flame
On a rainy night, national hero Robert V. Forrest drives his car over a small bridge that has collapsed. He is killed, and the entire United States goes into deep mourning. Admirer and renowned journalist Stephen O'Malley returns from Europe to write a biography of the great man. Among the throngs covering the funeral, he finds his old friends and fellow reporters Jane Harding and Freddie Ridges. They remain after the rest of the press leave.
