Although she has reached her eighteenth birthday, she is under the continual surveillance of a governess. To add to these galling conditions, her doting old father presents her with a large doll as a birthday gift. In the house next door, Bob is welcomed home from college by his mother. She is the exact opposite of Ella's father, kind and benevolent and proud of her big, handsome son. After greetings are over, Bob wanders out under the trees to smoke. Ella eludes the vigilance of her governess and goes outside to meditate upon her hard lot. She wanders down to the great hedge which separates her father's home from that of Bob's mother. Looking over the barrier, she catches sight of Bob. He sees her for the first time. It is a case of love at first sight. They chat in a friendly manner until the girl's governess bundles her into the house. Bob tells his mother of the girl. Another meeting occurs. Bob gives the girl a note just before she is again captured by the persistent governess. This note proves to be a plan for their elopement that night. Ella outwits both her father and the governess and the marriage is performed. The grouchy old father takes Bob's mother to task for what has happened. She endeavors to calm his ire. The "storm" is finally quelled by the sight of the two happy young people approaching. The old folks decide that the other is not so bad after all, and we are led to believe that they follow the example of the young folks. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
