Breach of Promise

• Watchlist

A young lady while reading the morning paper finds an announcement of the wedding of her sweetheart to another at 12 o'clock that day. She goes directly to his apartments where she accuses him of infidelity and after administering severe physical punishment, as well as vocal, she locks him in his room and leaves. He experiences great difficulty in getting out of the room, finding it necessary to lower himself from the window by means of the bedclothes. After getting free it becomes necessary to secure suitable clothes in which to appear at the ceremony. Great trouble is again experienced and the delay results in his holding the wedding party. Of course, great anxiety is evinced by the bride and friends assembled. Soon the men of the party start in search for him. They finally come upon him just as he is adjusting some second-hand clothing he has been able to obtain. They hurry him to the scene of the festivities, upbraiding him seriously as they go, with the result that when the party is reached the tired and disgusted man refuses to be joined in wedlock.
