An old maiden aunt tyrannizes over the girl and forbids the girl to receive him when he calls. Of course, the girl disobeys, and the pair are enjoying a loving tete-a-tete when the aunt appears, and is horrified. She sends the girl to her room, in spite of her pleading, and forcibly assists the hero to leave. The aunt intercepts a note the girl has written to her lover, making an appointment to meet him at a certain place and be married. The aunt conceives of a scheme of wearing the girl's clothing and heavy veil, meeting the young man and marrying him herself. She goes to the girl's room, makes her take off her outer clothing, puts same on and locks the door to the room, then sets out to keep the engagement with the young lover. The girl in the meantime, opening her window, discovers a tramp sleeping, awakens him, gives him note and instructions. The tramp hurries away, delivers the note to the lover before the aunt arrives. The lover, apprised of the aunt's scheme, turns tables on the old lady by dressing the tramp in his clothes, and leaving the tramp to meet the old maid. He then releases the girl by means of a ladder. The lovers hurry to the church in time to witness the marriage of the aunt and the tramp. The lovers are then united in marriage and go to meet the aunt and her husband. The aunt, discovering the trick, is wild with rage, but concludes a man's a man, and to the disgust of the tramp refuses to release him. The subject abounds with absurd situations, and will prove n great laugh producer. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
