Neal goes home with her and on the station platform loses his nerve. Hiding behind a trunk, he hears her father tell her that she is to marry Rev. Timothy Jones. They have never seen the minister, but are sure he will make a fine husband for Hazel. Neal goes back and enlists the aid of two college boys. With Neal in ministerial garb they start back on the same train as the Rev. Jones. The boys kidnap him, while Neal goes on and is received as Jones. The first shock comes when he is informed that he is to preach the morning sermon. He and Hazel write a sermon overnight, but he forgets his notes in the morning and has to faint to get out of it. Then he is called on to marry Cousin Lucy. He performs the "ceremony" and he and Hazel take the young couple for a ride and tell them the truth. Meanwhile the Reverend has escaped his captors and been carried by an automobilist to within a mile of Hazel's. As he walks along he is spied by Neal and the bunch. Neal sheds his clericals and Jones marries both couples. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
