Bamabee objects to the attentions of Charles and forbids Mildred to receive his attentions. On the other hand Billy is liked by the old man. Who urges Mildred to accept his proposal of marriage. She refuses and accompanies Charles while he sketches in the woods one morning. Billy sees them and immediately informs old Barnebee, who rushes into the forest in his shirt sleeves to bring his daughter back. Meanwhile, Billy finds Charles' deserted sketching outfit, and. thinking to trick him, pours a bottle of glue over the log on which the artist has been sitting. But the trick proves a boomerang in that old Barnebee, exhausted from tramping through the woods, flops down on the log to rest and sticks fast in the glue. Endeavoring to extricate himself Barnabee loses an embarrassing portion of his trousers and is forced to decorate his exposed person with tree branches and odds and ends of everything that is handy. Consequently he is taken for a "wildman" by some girls who spread the alarm in town and the constable, with a posse, starts out on the hunt. Billy joins the pursuit and proves himself an arrant coward when asked to capture the strange apparition. After a frantic search Charles suddenly comes upon Bamabee and the mystery is solved. Billy is forced to confess he worked the glue incident and Barnabee orders him out of sight, while Charles takes Mildred in his arms much to the old constable's bucolic amusement.
