The Honeymooners (1912)
Charlie Smith, whose father objects to his son keeping company with Rae Meadows, sends his gardener, De Forest Smith, with a letter of instructions to Rae. The gardener is in love with Rae's cook, Bainey, and they, like Charlie and Rae, elope. After sending a telegram to the Grand Hotel, Boston, to reserve the best suite of rooms, Charlie and his wife start to Boston by automobile, while the gardener and Bainey, start by train. The manager of the hotel is delighted to receive the telegram, but when the gardener and his wife arrive and ask for the best suite of rooms, he turns them down, because they look like country rubes. It is not until De Forest produces his card that the manager gives them accommodation, thinking that it must be he who sent the telegram signed "Smith." As a couple of notorious criminals by the name of Smith are at large, the inspector of police institutes a search of all the hotels. The inspector and the police arrive at the Grand Hotel and see the name of Mr. and Mrs. Smith on the register. Just as he is making the arrests, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Smith, who have walked all the way, their machine having broken down, appear and ask for their rooms. Upon producing their cards, the inspector has the four Smiths arrested and taken to prison, thinking they are the bandits. They are left there for the night. The next morning the inspector receives a telegram to the effect that the real criminals have been captured, traveling under the name of Maloney. This, of course, exonerates the Smiths.
