He wishes the girl to marry Richard Rosin, who promises that if Lockstep gives him his daughter he will rob a couple of banks for him. The girl, in despair, tells her father that she is going for some sausages, and so gets out of the house. At the trysting place she hides a letter to Clarence in the cranny of the old stone wall, and later he finds it. "Come and help me to elope with you," writes Maud, and Clarence obeys joyously. They elope, Maud climbing down from her room by means of a rope of bed sheets but her father discovers the trick and pursues them on foot, while Rosin rides a horse. At last the girl is captured and brought back. Meanwhile, Rosin, who is secretly married, has been neglecting his hard-working wife and child. Clarence knows of their existence, and sends for them while he goes to the Lockstep house to observe what is happening. The old man summons a minister and is about to force Maud to marry Rosin when Clarence rushes in and denounces Rosin as a married man. His wife and child rush in and confront him, and he is foiled. Clarence gets Maud and Rosin is reconciled with his wife. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
