Love's Old Sweet Song (1910)
Jack Bryant is one of a party of campers who are roughing it. Each man takes his turn at being cook and when Jack is told off as chef his first duty is to go for eggs. There is a farmhouse nearby where he obtains a supply, and the farmer's daughter is an attractive girl; so attractive indeed that Jack deliberately breaks the eggs that he may have an excuse for returning for more. A third time he makes application and there is but one left Cherrie is loath to let that go but Jack coaxes it from her for a keepsake. The incident has served to start a friendship that terminates in marriage and Cherrie and Jack start for the city after a rustic wedding. The marriage is a shock to aristocratic Mrs. Bryant and her son's wife is not made welcome, the more especially as it seems impossible to train her to city ways. But the mother and daughter-in-law are drawn closer together as time passes and Jack devotes his time to dissipation. The two women share the nightly vigil for the errant one and the mother comes to realize the sterling qualities that underlie the girl's rough exterior. One night Jack comes home considerably the worse for liquor and his mother's reproaches stir his latent manhood to maudlin self-sympathy. He is about to destroy himself when he is saved by the singing of love's old sweet song.
