Winning an Heiress (1911)

Charley Sapleigh reads in the papers how several rich heiresses had eloped with the family chauffeurs, and decides to learn to drive an automobile, hire out to some wealthy family and win an easy fortune. Sapleigh takes a quick course in an automobile school, and gets a position with Mrs. Van Richley. Although he has heard the name of Muriel several times, he has never seen the heiress, as he supposes she is, but he receives a rude shock when asked to take Mrs. Van Richley and Muriel for a ride, to find that the latter is a pet monkey. This is enough for Sapleigh, who decides to take a more laborious, but surer road to fortune.
