The big fat village loan shark holds the mortgage and comes to collect payment. Father is a lazy sort of a fellow who never works and he hasn't got the payment. Whereupon the Shark threatens to put them out unless the pretty daughter will have him. Daughter, however, has ideas of her own in the person of The Stranger, whom she begins to love madly and whom she wants to marry. However, she is dutiful and will sadly marry The Shark if she must. But Stranger is no slow one and he gets into all sorts of terrible fights with The Shark and Pa. He plans to elope with daughter and is climbing up the house when he is observed by Pa and The Cruel Shark. He goes up to the roof and kicks all the chimney bricks down at the two and finally falls through. But that was some lucky flop, for in a brick in the chimney was hidden a regular roll of bills which he appropriates immediately. He hands them over to The Shark and kicks him out. The Shark, however, plans a revenge. Father has a youngster whom he steals and puts him on a big horse truck. The horses and truck run away with the child. The lover with the daughter pursue and the child is saved. The romance of Daughter and Stranger can go happily on without interruption. Written by Moving Picture Weekly - January 29th, 1921 See less
