On his assurance that he expects an engagement any minute, she consents and they get away to the minister's. That reverend gentleman, however, demands his fee in advance, so Jimmie hurries back to his room to borrow the necessary five-spot from his pal. Jack, who says he is broke, but hands Jimmy a telegram advising him of a high-salaried engagement awaiting him in Chicago. Asking Jack to explain to Lillian, he catches the next train for the west. Jack is not over-tactful in excusing his friend, so Lillian in a huff determines to marry Peter Hedge, a millionaire of seventy, whose matrimonial ad she had seen in the newspaper. A week later, Jimmie returns from Chicago with a fat bankroll and is horrified to learn of Lillian's plans. He is desperate until Jack comes to his assistance and helps him make up as a decrepit old man. Jack introduces himself to Lillian as the millionaire, when in strides a big six-footer who announces he is the millionaire from the west. She had imagined him to be an old fellow with one foot in the grave and nearly faints from surprise. When Jimmie speaks up to the big man, he lets loose. Jimmie and Lillian have to flee for their lives, and after a hair-raising chase, arrive at the home of the Justice of the Peace, where Angelica, the Judge's maiden-lady sister, recognizes in Hedge her sweetheart of years ago. A general "making-up" follows and the Justice earns a double marriage fee. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
