His words appeal strongly to the major who, being rather tired of single life, resolves mentally to take unto himself a wife, but where, oh where can he find his ideal? An idea strikes him and without apprising the young man of his intention, he inserts a "personal" in the morning Gazette to some agreeable home-loving woman wishing to marry. The next day he receives a response from a most charming and estimable spinster whose niece, by the way, happens to be the sweetheart of the major's young nephew. After some confidential correspondence, a meeting is arranged, but never having seen each other they agree to wear a white rose as a mark of identification. The precautions and mysterious manner in which they carry on their correspondence arouses the curiosity and apprehension of the spinster's niece and the major's nephew to such an extent that they follow them to the place of meeting, but not without some amusing complications. The spinster is the first to arrive at the place of appointment. Being somewhat timid and nervous, she drops her rose unawares, which a few moments later is picked up by her niece, who is in close pursuit. The major arriving a moment later and seeing the young lady with a white rose, mistakes her for the one whom he expects to meet and is soundly rebuked for daring to address her. He tries to explain the mark of identity when he discovers the loss of his rose, which is found by his nephew, who meets the spinster, where another case of mistaken identity occurs, after which all four meet. Complications are then happily straightened out, resulting in a double wedding. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
