A Ragtime Love Affair (1912)
Betty Cutt is to inherit a large sum of money from her grandfather, providing she learns to play the piano within six months after her grandfather's death. This, while attractive, is not the girl's only prize to be won, for she is hopelessly in love with Jack Wright, and entirely in opposition to her father's wishes. Betty has no aptitude for music and it seems little likely that she will win the fortune. However, Jack schemes to get an electrical piano in the house and masquerades as Professor Teachem, who guarantees to teach the piano in one lesson, and soon convinces her father and grandfather's lawyer that Betty is a great pianist, and thus succeeds in winning Betty. But, alas, the couple loses the fortune by forgetting to turn off the piano as they are leaving the house.
