Her father wants her to marry Sime Sloan, who has a job, and it takes all of Mattie's persuasive power to overcome Dad's objections, but she is equal to the occasion. She gets rid of John's two rivals, Sime and Bime, by promising to marry them it they will prove their love for her. To prove it one must sleep in one of her father's coffins and the other sit by it all night. Unknown to one another they come to fulfill their promise. After some hesitancy they settle down to the task. It really looks as if she would have to marry one or both, when she thinks that a little noise would help some. With the aid of John, she manages to get rid of both. In their fright they run through the meeting house presided over by Dad, who gets a couple of spills. He finally decides that John is the most sensible and thinks he can help in the undertaking business. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
