Clandestine meetings are planned and for a time all goes well, until Mildred sends the following paragraph: "Dear Boy, Come up to the house on the evening of the 2gth. Be on the porch at 7:30 P.M. Father is going to lodge meeting. With all my love, Mildred." The message by accident finds a resting place on the floor of the office and is found by the father. Suffice to say he cancels the lodge arrangements and goes on duty as a guard for Mildred. As the time draws near on the 26th, Mildred repairs to the porch, likewise Papa a close second. They return to the parlor. Smith, in the meantime, was foremost in the minds of each, and shortly after appears at the appointed place. The father, hearing the noise, opens the door and leads him "right in by the ear," and leads him "right out again." Disconsolate, he returns home and determines to see Mildred. He secures a disguise and delivers a note saying he will be on hand that night in disguise. Father not again suspecting his discharged employee, goes to bed, and peering through her window Mildred sees whom she believes to be Smith and opens her window and admits him. Her violent demonstrations of love overwhelm the burglar whom she takes for her persistent suitor. Discovering the mistake, she screams. He jumps through the window just as Smith appears, and a fight ensues. Police are called and the two taken into the house, the real culprit arrested and Smith fired. Again home, he plans another scheme. His lodge is giving a Bazaar and he offers to raffle himself off (but is to be in disguise), to be drawn by the lady holding the lucky number. The night arrives and Mildred and her father attend the Bazaar and the lucky number is held by the daughter and all ends happily. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
