PAPA WARD, a portly and dignified party, sits drowsily smoking in his study, where his adorable
daughter Fannie comes and bids him good-night. Shortly thereafter Toby Bates appears on the
outside of the house muffled up in auto garb, and throws pebbles against the window of Fannie's
boudoir. She opens the window, and presently comes down a ladder that the Auto-Lochinvar places
against the house. They have made a fair start in their auto when Papa Ward misses her, finds the
ladder, and starts his own machine in mad pursuit. Toby, to his horror, finds he is short of gasoline.
He persuades the girl to hide. He then disguises himself with goggles and mustache. He succeeds
in turning his machine about, facing the direction from which it came, and pretends to be mending
the machine when Papa Ward comes in pursuit. He does not recognize his would-be son-in-law, and
that young rascal gives him the wrong direction to follow. The girl comes from concealment and
their machine is turned back home. When Papa Ward comes back, utterly wearied, he finds his daughter peacefully sleeping. She persuades
the old gentleman that he acted under the impulse of a dream. With
confidence restored, they elope the next night. Then Papa Ward forgives them and all ends happily—and he has pleasant dreams thereafter.
