Flint is a crabbed old miser, besides, the girl is already betrothed to the young man of her choice. But it is marry Flint or surrender her share in her uncle's will to the cousin to whom, from reputation, she detests. Old Arthur, the cook on Glady's father's canal-boat, determines to play Cupid. He disguises himself as a large, ill-natured woman and palms himself off as Glady's to his would-be fiancé, who calls at the canal-boat. Old Arthur takes Flint out rowing. The suitor falls into a coal chute, and later he pitches overboard. All in all, the visitor has an awful day of it. When the executor of the estate, as soon as Flint has been brought to on the canal-boat, asks him if he will marry his cousin, Flint, despite his love of money, bellows, "NO." Since the girl has not declined, the fortune goes entirely to her. She marries the man she loves. Arthur is richly rewarded for his services. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
