He starts for home at top speed, determined to stop her. On the way he is almost winged by an automobile; when he looks around, he recognizes it as that of his would-be son-in-law--with his daughter actually in the car with him. Hobson quickly secures the aid of a policeman, who starts off in a racing car to chase and arrest the couple. In his excitement, the old man posts a notice offering a $1000 reward for the capture of the pair in time to prevent the marriage. Every young man in the neighborhood scours the country, seeking the elopers. The policeman in the racing car catches up with and arrests a pair of speeders in an automobile, bringing them back with him to Hobson's residence, forcing them to come along, listening to no explanation. As he arrives at the house, so do a number of young men bringing in several other pairs. It costs Mr. Hobson quite a lot of money to get rid of them all without suits or damages. The last pair to arrive come unattended, and prove to be the elopers, who have had the knot tied and returned for Papa's forgiveness. By this time Papa hasn't energy enough to refuse; seeing that he can't change things, he decides to make the best of it. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
