Mr. Courtley is a widower and his son is on his vacation from the University. Widow Smith, at the time of Mr. Courtley's arrival is in front of the house trimming her rose bushes and vines. She turns around with a glad and hospitable smile ready to greet her new neighbor. To her great astonishment she recognizes in him her schoolday's lover. Both are now in the Indian Summer of their existence. They have spent the best part of their lives. But their environments have a poetic effect. The spirit of youth enlivens their slow-beating hearts. Once more the fire of a love that was once extinguished, is now rekindled. The old folks renew a courtship which culminates in a marriage. It wasn't very easy for them to do their lovemaking. Mr. Courtley's son and Widow Smith's daughter looked with askance upon the old folks' growing attachment. They did everything to prevent their parents from being left alone together, but "love finds a way." The old folks outwit the younger ones and elope, much to the chagrin of young Mr. Courtley and young Miss Smith. However, they both find consolation in each other's arms.
