Full Plot Details

Mabel is in love with John, the country boy, but her father wants her to marry a Baron. She is locked up in a room, and her father watches her. John takes a bundle of cloth and makes a big firebrand which he throws into the window, at the same time yelling, "Fire." Dad runs for his life and Mabel jumps through the window into the arms of John, who hurries her to the minister's house. The ceremony is about to take place when Dad and the Baron rush in, and Mabel is led home again. Preparations are made for the wedding to the Baron, and Mabel is attired in her bridal gown, when John bangs a dummy over a cliff and sends a messenger to the scene of the wedding. The Baron, Dad and the guests all rush off to save the man reported to be hanging, and by the time they have discovered that it is a dummy. Mabel and John have wrapped the bridal veil about the head of a young farmer accomplice, who demurely awaits the return of the bridegroom. John and Mabel rush off to get married. The ceremony between the Baron and the fake bride proceeds to the placing of the ring on the finger of the bride, and the nervous Baron drops the gold band. Stooping to pick it up he sees that his "bride" is wearing heavy cowhide boots, and tearing the veil from the face of the farmer he sees the trick that has been played upon him. After beating the farmer boy a rush is made to the minister's house where John and Mabel have just been married, but they arrive as the happy couple have been made one.
