The Troublesome Daughters (1913)
Ruth Marsh tells her brother, Mark, that he will not be able to manage his daughters when they come home from school, but he only laughs at her. The girls arrive and as a matter of fact they are rather timid and afraid of him. Things are getting along nicely. One day Mark, while out riding, discovers his daughters with their sweethearts. He invites the boys home and one of the girls begins to play the piano. Mark falls asleep, and taking advantage of the opportunity, the young people go into the garden, where they spoon to their hearts' content. Mark wakes up and drives the boys from the premises, with an injunction never to come near the house again. Before he goes on a business trip, Mark writes his sister to come and take care of the girls, as he is unable to manage them. Although the young ladies are afraid of their aunt, they soon observe that she is much less a termagent than their father. One day the aunt catches the girls with their sweethearts, and perceiving that they are nice fellows, invites them to dinner the next day. Whereupon the girls soon learn that their aunt is the dearest soul in the world.
