This, however, is not the end of their wooing. Eddie resolves to make a grand rush for the hand of his heart's desire with all the romance befitting to an elopement. He advises Daisy of his purpose to call for her that evening. The romantic and adventurous tendencies of the young girl's heart are naturally attracted by her lover's plan of action, and prepares to immediately execute in preparation. That evening, father, while busily engaged with his cash box, attracts the attention of a second-story man, who registers a resolve to secure the valuables. As the hour for Eddie's visit draws near, Daisy becomes nervous at her father's presence. She is, however, suddenly relieved by her father's preparation of leave for a nearby cigar stand, and accepts his habitual smoke as a decree of fate. Taking hurried advantage of his absence, the burglar, upon noting the father's leave, also decides to make the best of his absence and promptly enters the house. Eddie arrives in accordance with schedule, and hurriedly enters the house, joining Daisy in her preparation to leave. The untimely arrival of her father drives the burglar into the seclusion of a closet, also awkwardly interferes with the elopers' plan. Pressed by time and space, Eddie enters the closet where the burglar is concealed. Two unusual situations are shown between the lover and the burglar, who find themselves unexpectedly closeted together and Daisy, her father, and others in the room. The tensity of the situation is suddenly relieved by Eddie and the burglar rolling from the closet into the midst of the surprised occupants of the room. The burglar, upon recovering his feet, hurriedly bolts, followed in mad pursuit by all but Eddie and Daisy, who gather their trappings and hurriedly leave for the waiting motor. The pursuers, upon overtaking the burglar, pause to gather their breath, as Eddie and Daisy motor past, waving in congratulation to their bewildered father, who swoons at the sight. In the excitement the burglar escapes. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
