Episode list

Katherine Trowbridge, a rebellious young orphan, lives with her aunt and uncle, the Curtises, who desire a match between Katherine and Weathersbee but pretend to oppose the union, knowing she will be the more likely to accept it. Accidentally discovering their trickery, she leaves home and determines to marry the first man who will have her. Consequently she offers herself to a bearded lumberjack (actually Dick Wells, a former suitor in disguise), and he accepts her. She is forced to go to a logging camp and there to cook and otherwise make herself useful. Kelly, a camp agitator, captures Katherine when she tries to escape from her husband, but Dick trails them and rescues her after a savage fight. When the doctor removes Dick's beard to dress a wound, Katherine recognizes him and finds that she has learned to love him.

She was the angel of mercy in a home where love and happiness reigned until tragedy struck.

Mechanic brothers Pappi and Chethanappi runs competing shops and frequently quarrel with each other. Their favorite Yezdi bike, used in the bike race to settle their fights comes in the possession of Philipose.

With his invalid mother, Chet Wells rents a piece of property from Deacon Todd for the purpose of demonstrating Chet's ideas of "scientific farming." Major Burke and his daughter Emily are near neighbors. Emily is engaged to marry a wealthy young neighbor man. Her neighborly kindness to poorly Mrs. Wells brings her into frequent association with Chet, and the young people become fond of each other without openly expressing their mutual regard. Chet is unable to make the farm pay, and when Deacon Todd demands his rent, the young man cannot pay. During the argument Mrs. Wells arises from her bed and the excited conversation between Todd, the sheriff, and Chet gives her such a shock that she falls to the floor, fatally stricken. Chet swears vengeance upon Deacon Todd whom he blames for hastening his mother's death. Finally compelled to vacate, Chet sells his chattel and goes away to seek his fortune. Deacon Todd moves into the house Chet has vacated and an enmity develops between Major Burke and the miserly old deacon, climaxing when the major sends a charge of shot in Todd's direction because he discovers the deacon letting his cows into the major's corn. Todd disappears the night that Chet returns. Suspicion is directed toward Chet because threats he had made to "get even" with the deacon. Major Burke is conscience-stricken when he sees a flock of buzzards hovering over a nearby swamp and fancies that the dead body of his "victim" is the attraction for the vultures. Taking assiduously to drinking for the purpose of quieting his conscience the major is overcome by the stuff and sleeps. Chet enters the major's house to call upon Emily and hears the major talking in his maudlin slumber, revealing the facts in the shooting of Todd. By the same method of transmission, Emily has learned from her own father's lips that truth of "the deacon's demise." When officers come to Burke's house and accuse Chet of the crime the young man admits that he is guilty and tells the officers to search the swamp for Todd's remains. Chet's heroism in submitting himself as a victim to her own father's action greatly stirs Emily's latent admiration, and forgetful of her obligation to marry another, the girl easily surrenders her heart to Chet and proceeds to help him out of his dilemma. Chet is locked in the rickety neighborhood jail and Emily releases him, giving him opportunity to decamp and begging him to take her along to be married. Thus matters arrive at the conclusion of the film, but the exact manner in which the story ends is not revealed. Suffice it to say that the "surprise finish" changes the whole nature of the story from tense melodrama to boisterous farce, ending in the "biggest laugh" ever produced by a moving picture.
