A Happy Coercion (1914)
Cynthia, an old maid, has fed old Tompkins bread and honey for fifteen years, hoping he will propose, but so far has been disappointed. She is feeling almost hopeless when he asks her to go to a church social. At the social the announcement is made of the engagement of Mary and John, young sweethearts. Big Bob, a cowboy, wishes them to marry that evening. They escape. Bob grabs the minister, puts him on his horse and a chase ensues. Old Tomkins takes Cynthia home and leaves her weeping with disappointment. The gang, disappointed in not catching the young people when finding the old man on the road home, capture him and returning to Miss Cynthia's house and make the minister marry them.
