Jack, who is employed in the neighborhood, is quite in love with pretty Ethel. The two young people become betrothed. What gives a strange beauty to Ethel is her wonderful hair. One day, while delivering a hat to a wealthy customer, the lady asks her to try the hat on and marvels at Ethel's golden tresses. She offers to buy it, but, of course, Ethel refuses, even though offered quite a sum. Jack receives a letter from his father that he is coming to see him, and that he brings good news. Jack is perplexed at the letter and tells Ethel that he will marry her if his father will allow or not. The proposition the father had to make was to offer his son to the daughter of one of his neighbors, who had a big dowry. He even showed a photograph of the girl to Jack, but instead of answering his father, he went to fetch Ethel and then present her as being his betrothed. The old peasant found the young girl all right, but his first question was, "How much dowry does she bring." The negative answer he received displeased him and he refused to allow his son to marry a girl who does not bring a marriage settlement. When Ethel reached home, an idea crossed her mind. She might be able to get the dowry imposed by Jack's father. She knows the lady who offered to buy her hair and goes to her and tells her she consents to sell it. She has received the money and the hairdresser is on the point of cutting the hair, when Jack comes in time to prevent her from making the sacrifice. He explains all to the lady who let Ethel have the money, and Jack and Ethel were married. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
