Where There's a Will There's a Way (1914)
The lawyer notified the girl and the boy that they must marry each other to receive the inheritance. They have never seen each other and decide, without meeting, to live in pauperism rather than wed. The girl, wearying of the lawyer's importunities, goes to the city with her maid. A tramp finds in the street a key to an apartment. He goes to the place designated on the tag and finds a well-equipped bachelor apartment. He decides to rent the place and pocket the first month's rent. He inserts an ad, which is seen by the girl upon her arrival at Grand Central Station. She rents the house and the tramp departs for regions unknown. That night the owner returns. Complications ensue. Each thinks the other a burglar. When the matter is explained it is late and the girl decides to remain there until morning. The next morning her aunt arrives and, to explain her presence in his apartment, the owner states that he has married her. This embarrasses the girl, but she finds the owner is not disagreeable. A hasty marriage is planned. He writes to the lawyer, telling him he is going to marry the woman he loves. This excites the lawyer, who rushes away to prevent the marriage. The young couple are before the minister by the time he arrives. But when he finds that fate and the tramp have brought together the very couple mentioned in the will, he breathes with relief and congratulations as he gives them the check for the inheritance.
