He corresponds with her, and she rather takes a liking to his photograph. He spends a week in the country with his friends, the De Veers, and during his absence the widow calls on the De Veers whom she knows well. Learning of Cutey 's presence, she makes the De Veers promise not to reveal her identity, and when Cutey returns, she falls in love with him immediately. Cutey in turn is charmed with her, but having in mind the widow and her money, is a little coy, not knowing of course, that he is talking to the widow herself. But the De Veers and the widow makes so much over him, his vanity gets the better of his good sense and he begins to boast of the wealthy widow he is going to marry. Mrs. Audly is highly indignant and determines to teach Cutey a lesson. On her return home, she finds a letter from Cutey saying he can no longer live without her (which is pretty near the truth, for his credit is about exhausted) and she at once replies that she will marry him the following day. Before his arrival, the widow disguises herself as an ugly old woman. The groom does not see the bride's face until just before the ceremony and he nearly has a fit. He refuses to marry her, but she threatens him with arrest and he is forced to go through it. When the Mayor, who is officiating, tells Cutey to kiss his bride, he draws the line, and leaps for the door. He is caught and brought back, however, to find that the widow has been transformed into a beautiful woman. He doesn't have to be urged to kiss the bride then, while everybody laughs and the flower girls shower them with roses. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
