Sally's Romance (1913)
Pretty country girl Sally is adored by young Joe from the next farm. An artist tramping through the country comes to Sally's house and asks for lodging while he paints. As he is a splendid-looking fellow, Joe is not happy over the arrangement. Then the artist sees Sally in a pretty light by the window and decides to paint a picture with her as the model; this adds to Joe's unease. Sally's nature is touched by the young artist's personality though he's only aware that he has a good model for his picture. When he's finished, Sally refuses money for the posing, and when she admires a heavy antique ring he wears, he presents it to her. He returns to New York and Sally awaits a letter from him. The picture eventually wins a prize and the artist writes to Sally telling her of its success and saying that were he in the position to do so, he would offer her a permanent engagement. Sally interprets this as a marriage proposal, takes her money from her little bank, packs a few things, and starts for the city to find him. Joe, who has lost heart but not determination, follows her to the city. When Sally arrives at the studio, she looks through the half-open door and what she sees makes her drop to her knees in a girlish passion of tears: a reception is taking place inside and the artist and his bride-to-be are being congratulated by the assembled guests. Joe comes up the stairs and finds the little figure in a heap outside the artist's door, lifts her up, and takes her away with him. On the way home Sally stops, leans on the rail of a little bridge, slowly draws off the artist's ring, and drops it into the stream below. Then she lays her head on Joe's shoulder and they start for home, wiser and happier.
