Of course, he eventually runs afoul of the police and in eluding pursuit hooks on the rear end of an auto, which turns out to be a police department car en route to the station house. In court, Dick's skates precipitate a series of accidents in which the judge fares badly. His honor, incensed, sentences Dick to six months solitary confinement, but upon the plea of Dick's father, who is a friend of the judge, sentence is suspended with the proviso that Dick gets married within a week. Matrimony doesn't appeal to Dick but neither does six months solitary confinement. He writes five proposals to as many fair candidates. Having chosen one of the five letters at random, he drops it in the mail box. The family butler finds the remaining four letters on Dick's desk, and true to the training of a good butler he mails them without Dick's knowledge. At this juncture, father's partner arrives with his pretty daughter. Love at first sight. All's rosy - till the girls, who have received Dick's unauthorized proposals, get busy. Each, of course, is just wild to deliver the fatal "Yes!" to Dick's offer of marriage. Complications galore. Eventually, Dick loses his real sweetheart, and father, disgusted, cuts him off without a cent. "But what's a man without an inheritance!" chorus Dick's quartet of fiancee's as they promptly exit. Dick disgraced; the girl inconsolable; both fathers wrathful. Then the butler to the rescue: "I wrote those letters to the young ladies, sir, to help Mr. Dick get married!" he explains. Reconciliation and kisses. Written by Motion Picture News, April 14, 1923 See less
