The Egyptian Mummy (1913)

Prof. Howe knows more about antiques than he does about love affairs and consequently he declares that Dick, his daughter's sweetheart, is a nuisance. Howe purchases an ancient Egyptian mummy and Dick observes the delivery of the huge case. A daring scheme occurs to him. With Arvilla's assistance he takes the place of the mummy and when Howe opens the case he hears a sepulchral voice exclaim: "Let your daughter marry whom she chooses. Rameses demands it." Arvilla says she chooses Dick, and Howe, grasping his daughter by the hand, hastens to Dick's house to satisfy the mummy. Dick has the time of his life in making a wild dash to his home before the arrival of the professor. Then he is induced (?) to listen.
