The Heritage of Hamilton Cleek (1914)
Completely wrapped up in his wedding preparations, Cleek had allowed everything else to escape from his mind and had not even noted the news from Mauravania announcing the King's death. In the very midst of this the Apaches decided to deal one lasting blow at their natural enemy, and having bribed the chauffeur to drive through a lonely road, they succeeded in abducting Miss Lorne as she was on her way to the city to make some final purchases before her wedding. The guests were assembling for the ceremony when Sir Horace Wyvern burst upon them, announcing that his niece had failed to return from the city. Convinced that his old enemies were at the bottom of it, Cleek started immediately on the trail and traced the abductors to a deserted house. After confirming his suspicions, he telephoned to Superintendent Narkom, who quickly arrived on the scene with a force of detectives. Miss Lorne was rescued and the entire band of Apaches were captured and thrown into prison. Cleek returned to the house with his fiancée, and just as the ceremony was finished, amid the congratulations of their friends, the Royal Councilor of the Court of Mauravania was announced. To the astonishment of the assembled guests, he proclaimed Cleek heir to the throne of Mauravania and urged him to return and accept the gift of a grateful people. Cleek came to a quick decision, informing the Royal Councilor that his Kingdom was in England, and that his newly-sworn allegiance to the queen of his heart would prevent him from taking advantage of the magnificent offer.
