He conspires with some of the bolder spirits of the company to hold up the stage in which Mr. Gray and his daughter are homeward bound to the King George Inn, he will then dash up, drive the "robbers" away single handed and claim the fair lady. O'Donnell, a rough-and-ready spirit, agrees to lead the desperate band. In an upper room of the Tavern, Mr. Sudgeberry. a staid and studious gentleman, who is also a suitor for the hand of the fair Sylvia, overhears the plot. He is not naturally of a courageous nature, but the thought of Sylvia urges him out into the deep snow. He hides under a clump of bushes near the point of attack and witnesses the whole affair. The attack takes place as arranged, and in the midst of it, the valiant William comes dashing into the hand on horseback, and with his wonderful "sword-play," beating down all opposition, soon has the robbers in full flight. After their departure, Sylvia and Mr. Gray express their heartfelt gratitude and the party then proceeds to their destination, accompanied by the brave William. Hoag, landlord of the Tavern, and one of the band has stayed behind. Sudgeberry, picking up a cutlass, forces him to come with him to King George's Inn and there, confronting Mr. Gray, Sylvia and William, makes him confess the whole affair was a farce, deliberately planned by William. That gentleman sorrowfully admits the truth and Sudgeberry steps forward, feeling sure that the girl will denounce the young man's perfidy and place her faith and trust in him. Sylvia confronts William and says, "If you have done all this for me, then you must love me." She stands close to him and William is not too surprised to take her lovingly in his arms and seal their betrothal with a kiss, while the landlord gives a whoop of satisfaction and Sylvia's father laughs at Sudgeberry's chagrin.
