Father's choice is a wealthy man, and under his vigorous supervision, the engagement of the girl and father's choice is announced. The day is set for the wedding, and Pat is in distress, but resolves "never to say die." On the wedding day Pat takes the preacher's car, and securing another preacher, sends him to the house, intending to manage things in such a manner that the new preacher will marry himself and the girl, instead of the expected groom. He tells the girl of his plans, and she is enthusiastic. They have a hard time getting the man, the preacher and the girl together, but at last it is accomplished and Pat is about to be married when father arrives. Pat "beats" it with the girl and the minister. The chase extends in and out of the house, and every time he gets a little ahead of his pursuers, Pat stops and has the preacher read a line or two of the ceremony. Just as they are about to be caught the ceremony is over and the father is powerless to undo the match. Written by
