The Real Agatha (1914)
Young Lord Vincent, who is known as Freddie, takes an automobile ride into the country with several of his friends. While Freddie and his older companion, Archibald Terhune, are inquiring as to the location of a certain town, the other two members of the party, as a joke, drive off and leave them. They wander to the castle of Lady Agatha, heiress to the Wykhoff millions. Here they learn that each suitor for the hand of Agatha is allowed to remain four weeks, and Miss Armistead, Agatha's guardian, thinking they are suitors, invites them to remain to dinner and shows them to a room. There are six girls who pose as Agatha, and to make sure that the suitors are not marrying for money, the real Agatha is introduced as Miss Armistead's secretary and goes under the name of Miss Marsh. Archibald immediately starts to make love to all the girls, not giving the secretary a single thought, while Freddie is infatuated with Miss Marsh and insists upon paying her attention, much to the disgust of Archibald. At the end of the four weeks Archibald has selected the girl he loves and Freddie has picked none other than Miss Marsh, the secretary, regardless of the fact that she is a poor girl. When told the truth as to Miss Marsh's identity, Archibald is disgusted with himself for being so stupid, while Freddie takes Miss Marsh in his arms, happy that he placed love above everything.
