Unable to set an appointment with him the girl climbs through the window one night and awaits his arrival. While there she sees one of the rival candidate's tools try to steal some important papers. She attempts to thwart the theft and is struggling with the man when Hunt arrives. Later the girl saves Hunt's life and then he asks her to marry him.
