Arriving in Wiggintown, fate directed him to Ezra Haskins' boarding house. Ezra Haskins lately adopted a girl from the poorhouse, named Seraphina. Seraphina, in addition to being young and impressionable, had an exaggerated case of the romantic temperament. The arrival of the handsome young stranger from the city threw her into a furor of excitement. Toward Chug and her other country admirers she preserved an attitude of cold disdain. Ezra Haskins was what one might call comfortably well-to-do. In accordance with the custom of simple souls, he looked askance on savings banks, and kept his money under his pillow. The astute sport, learning of this interesting fact, decided that he could turn it to account. Accordingly, he professed himself passionately devoted to the guileless Seraphina. Seraphina, who from the first, had feared that her devotion to Sport must perish unconfessed, was overjoyed by the sudden attentions of that young man. And when, after a few days of courtship, he suggested that they elope, she was so overcome by her good fortune that Sport's further suggestion that they borrow Old Haskins' money to help them on their way never bothered her moral sense at all. In pursuance with Sport's directions, Seraphina took the money from its hiding place, and gave it to her lover. Instead, Sport started immediately for the city. On the way, his horse ran away and he was thrown into the road. There, Seraphina, who had learned of Sport's duplicity from Chug, found him. Hastily regaining the money from the unconscious man, she ran home, weeping, and confessed her fault to Mrs. Haskins. Then, still sniveling, Seraphina returned to her work. She had learned her lesson. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
