- Cy Perkins kept a general store in the little village of Ipswich. Cy, gay old dog, was in love with all his fair customers. He had a peculiar habit of selling the ladies his merchandise at half value, which pleased his customers, but enraged his stout wife. Young Jed Prody, the village cut-up, is madly in love with Abarella Squires. He writes her a note to meet him at 9 p.m. in front of the garden gate and they will run away. Old Cy casts longing eyes on Abarella's beauteous face and imagines that she returns his sentiments. She enters the store to purchase something and absent-mindedly gives him the note in place of a bill. Cy reads it and thinks he has won her. He sneaks from the house playing the accordion, but in trying to leave the store the wind blows the door shut and his coat catches in it. Cy finally gets the door open and two figures who have been leaning against it are precipitated in, the three going to the floor. He arises to find that it is Abarella and her youthful swain who have been spooning. To complete his enjoyment they drag him all over the store for breaking up their ''date." He retires to his room, cut, scratched, and with clothes torn from his back.—Moving Picture World synopsis
