The Interference of Broncho Billy (1914)

Old Carl Stockdale is an habitual drunkard and the cause of much unhappiness to his daughter, Marguerite. Broncho Billy meets Stockdale's charming daughter and becomes very much interested in her, and realizes the sad state of affairs in the home on account of the father's failing. Marguerite sends her father to a famous drink cure in the city and he returns home cured, but, "If a drop of liquor touches his lips, it will prove fatal to him." The boys scheme in many ways to force Stockdale to drink, but each time are outwitted by Broncho Billy. When Broncho Billy asks Marguerite to become his wife, she willingly consents to trust her happiness to one who will protect and guide her over the rough places.
