The Spitfire (1910)
The temper of Lucy Jennings had become so notorious in the village that she was almost always called the "Spitfire." Her parents could not cure her temper by kindness, so the father thought to cure her be sterner methods. He caught her in the street after she had disobeyed her mother and broken the dishes that she should have dried. Fastening her hands together, he hauled her through the village and tied her to the public hitching post. At that time the young pastor was coming down the street, and seeing an unusual commotion, hastened to discover the cause. Finding the "Spitfire" fastened to the post, he unfastened her at once and harangued the villagers, who disappeared shamefacedly. He then took the girl home to her parents, and after telling them that kindness, not force, was needed, arranged to send her to a boarding school for two years. After the two years had elapsed she returned a beautiful young lady. Of course the inevitable happened. The parson loses his heart to the much accomplished Lucy.
