Will Huntingdon, Salina's nephew, returns from college for his vacation, bringing with him his chum Geo. Lamon. Will is in love with Hiram's niece Judith Hughes, and George falls in love with her sister Muriel. They are very anxious to bring about a match between Aunt Salina and Uncle Hiram and Will makes up his mind that the only way to do this is to make Hiram Jealous. In his trunk he has two costumes which he and George wore at a college masquerade, so dressing in these they persuade Aunt Salina to go for a walk with them, having arranged with Judith to have Hiram at the crossroads at a certain time. To do this Judith, who is busy with a dressmaker complains of a headache and asks Uncle Hiram to drive Miss Osgood to the dressmaker's home. They arrive at the crossroads just in time to see Aunt Salina in the embrace of the supposed Mexican. Hiram's jealousy is aroused, likewise Salina's when she discovers Miss Osgood riding with Hiram. To add fuel to the flames will describes Aunt Salina's friend to Judith in the presence of Hiram. The next day in order to get Hiram where he can see Salina with another man Judith puts Clara into a canoe and pushes it out into the river and then rushes wildly and tells him of Clara's predicament. Hiram rushes out, dives into the river, rescues Clara and as he is starting for home and dry clothing, sees Salina and a minister friend ride by in an auto. The next day Hiram gets his courage in both hands and proposes to Salina much to her joy and the joy of the young people. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
