No One Ever Argues Duress Or Changes A Will
22 February 2022
Edna May Sperl and Doctor Carlton Brickert want to get married, but her father wants her to marry drip Ben Hendricks Jr. Since they're all up in the Maine woods, it's up to guide Edgar Jones to figure out how to make everything come out right.

Jones and his crew shot a bunch of shorts in Maine in 1920 and 1921. He took advantage of the piney country. Of the four or five I've seen, all have been dramas. This is the only comedy. It's more a situational comedy than the more familiar slapstick that people think of when it comes to silent comedy, but it certainly takes advantage of the local scenery.
