Winnie lives on a nearby farm with parents who keep boarders. Cassius and Winnie fall in love and he contrives by a ruse to secure boarding at the Winsome homestead. Cassius incurs the displeasure of Pa Winsome, who warns Cassius to cease his attention to Winnie. One night, from an upper window, Pa hears the pair planning to elope. In his nightshirt, he enters the garden. His anger is aroused by stepping on a lighted cigarette Cassius has thrown on the walk. Pa chases Cassius into the house, following him in his room. Cassius hurriedly packs his suitcase. Pa pounds with a gun on the door, demanding entrance. Pa breaks the door panel; Cassius grabs his suitcase and dives through the window. Cassius and Winnie flee in the former's automobile with Pa on horseback in hot pursuit. A punctured tire enables Pa to overtake the elopers. Pa pummels Cassius and takes Winnie home. Cassius, resolving to win Winnie, confides in his friend, Willie Wise, who offers aid. Wise, disguised, offers to sell Pa $500 counterfeit for $50 legal tender and proves the purchasing power of the alleged counterfeit (in reality good money previously furnished by Cassius). Pa accepts the proposition. Later Wise returns disguised as a secret service agent and arrests Pa and relieves him of the $500 belonging to Chex. Pa pleads for mercy, pleading ignorance. Cassius appears by prearranged plan and pretends to recognize the officer as an old friend. Pa entreats Cassius to help him, agreeing to withdraw objections to the marriage. Cassius hesitates, then calls Wise aside. After a conversation Wise returns Cassius' money and departs. Pa takes Cassius to the house and resignedly turns away as Cassius and Winnie embrace.
