Love's Victory (1911)

Pretty Marjorie was in love with Jack, but her father was determined that she should marry Richard Hastings, a broker. It was finally agreed that Jack should go away and get a job and not see Marjorie for sixty days. Within this period Hastings contrived to have a notice inserted is the newspapers, stating that Jack had married someone else. When Marjorie saw it, she consented to marry Hastings. One day Hastings, Marjorie and her father went out for a ride in the automobile. The gasoline ran out on the way, and they were compelled to stop. Marjorie remained in the machine while Hastings and her father went in search of gasoline. Now Jack had secured a job and he was at work within a few rods of where the machine had stopped. He hurried up and greeted his sweetheart. She at first refused to talk to him, but after he explained, she saw it was all a plot. Hastings and her father were returning. A handcar stood on the railroad track nearby. "Will you marry me?" said Jack. "Yes," said Marjorie. Together they made a rush for the handcar. Before Hastings and father were aware of it, they were flying down the track. As soon as the automobile could be started, the two men followed in pursuit. At a crossing Jack saw a minister driving along. The handcar was brought to a stop and the bewildered minister dragged aboard. Then as they flew at full speed with the automobile in pursuit, the knot was tied.
