An Exile's Love (1910)
Karl, Prince Boroslav, exiled from his country, came to America to find employment. Dusty and tired, he turned in, one day, at the gate of a handsome estate. A young man who had just returned from a ride with a beautiful girl was assisting her to alight. As he held her in his arms for an instant, he attempted to kiss her, but was angrily repulsed. The girl proved to be Betty Stevens, daughter of Colonel Stevens, owner of the estate. Karl asked for a job. She called her father and the young man was hired as assistant gardener. It was love at first sight with Karl. As Betty turned to leave him she dropped a glove. He quickly secured it and put it in his pocket. When Betty, later, discovered him in the garden pressing kisses on the glove, she was very indignant, so very, very indignant that she ran to her room and burst into tears and then pressed the glove against her cheek. The young man with whom Betty was first seen returning from a ride, was Phil Andrews, a neighbor, who was very anxious to marry her. Angered because she was indifferent to him, he seized her one day in the garden, Karl happened to be near and promptly knocked Andrews down. One afternoon, a groom who was to attend Betty on her ride, fell and hurt himself as he was about to mount. Betty's father was Karl near and ordered him to take the groom's place. As they started, Andrews appeared and followed at a distance. Betty saw some flowers at the edge of a cliff. Karl offered to gather them, but she insisted on doing so herself. While thus engaged, she fell over the cliff. Karl was in despair. At the risk of his life he climbed down to her. She was unconscious. Karl took her in his arms to make her more comfortable. Then temptation overcame him and he kissed her. Andrews, who had been peering over the cliff, saw this. He rushed down by a roundabout path and arrived just as Betty regained consciousness. Angrily, he told her what he had observed. Betty looked at Karl a moment and then put her arms around his neck. Of course, the Colonel raved around when he learned of their marriage, but he soon forgave them. To cap it all, a cablegram arrived stating that Karl's estates, title and military rank had been restored.
