Cupid's Chauffeur (1911)
Papa Bloggs decides to send Caroline back to boarding school, taking her there himself in his automobile. Harry hears of this and with the aid of friends arranges a plot to outdo the old gentleman. They induce his chauffeur to allow Harry to disguise himself in the chauffeur's heavy fur coat, cap and goggles and run the machine that is to carry Caroline and her father to the boarding school. The friends disguise themselves as bold highwaymen to waylay Mr. Boggs, and hold up his limousine as it passes through a lonely patch of wood, which they have selected as a point of advantage to do the trick. While they are robbing the old gentleman, Harry, as the chauffeur, runs away, leaving the old gentleman and his daughter to the mercy of the thieves, who take him further into the woods to strip him of his valuables. In the meantime Harry throws off the disguise of the chauffeur and picks up his gun and hunting outfit, placed at a convenient point, and saunters towards the spot where old man Bloggs is being relieved of his belongings, just in time to get the drop on the three highwaymen and rescues their frightened victim and make them give back the things that they have stolen and puts them to flight. Mr. Bloggs' gratitude is inexpressible, as he grasps the hand of Harry Branscombe. But after he has recovered from his fright and surprise, he turns to Caroline, who has followed her father, takes her hand and places it in that of his deliverer and bestows his blessing upon his daughter and his future son-in-law.
