First of all comes the breakfast with a large number of gentlemen and ladies arrayed in handsome clothes of various colors but all suitable for the proposed fox hunt. They seat themselves at a long table, when May Emory, the daughter of the host appears. Bert Clark and Fritz Schade are lavish in their attentions and the lively girl does not know which to choose. She finally leaves it to the decision of chance, saying that the man who caught the fox would catch her. Downstairs among the colored servants Guy Woodward, arrayed in the white cap and white clothes of his profession as chef, seems to be winning the affections of Polly Moran, a comely maid. Then along comes Ford Sterling, who is Clarke's groom, and his livery, with its smart cut and brass buttons, catches the eye of Polly. The elegant band of hunters on fine mounts are off, the hounds in fully cry. They dash down country a road with the sly fox running strong. He soon leads them off the beaten road across hills and dales and water hazards. Though Fritz gets the fox and claims the girl he loses out on account of cowardice, when the groom shoots up the house. Bert marries the girl and they are togged up in all the regalia that a fashionable wedding demands. Quite in contrast is the imitation of grandeur by the colored pair, Polly and Ford. The groom is a little careless and steps on the maid's train. She makes a ludicrous picture as she runs around with abbreviated skirts. Her anger when she discovers her plight is set forth vigorously. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
