Learn more- Lucille was playing with her kitten in the yard. Breakfast was ready and papa was looking for her. He found her in the yard and as he approached her the kitten ran up his back under his coat. Papa took Lucille in, and breakfast went on. The kitten crawled out of his coat and into his cereal dish, and in putting her out of the room he dragged the electric toaster onto his chair and then sat on it. Papa received a letter from his cousin, telling him of the arrival in town of the Count de Fromage. Soon after, the Count himself appeared. Father and mother looked high and low for Lucille, for the idea of making her a Countess appealed to them. But she had run away to the farm, where lived her uncle and aunt and her cousin Bill. Lucille dressed herself in a suit of Bill's overalls, and just as she was changing, one of the farmhands burst into her room. Bill heard her scream, and came to her rescue. In the meantime, father and mother had set out in their car to the farm, with the Count in tow. Bill had just found a nest of eggs in a corn field, and after sitting on it for a few moments, the chicks were all hatched. Lucille had a lovely time with the chickens, but the arrival of the Count spoiled everything. She called Bill to her aid, and they pushed the poor man into the haylift, and hauled him up into the loft. Then they let go suddenly and he fell plunk into the horse trough. The Count had a horrid time, but it didn't help Lucille much, for her parents accepted him for her, and the wedding was announced. The guests were all assembled, and the unwilling bride was dressing upstairs. At last she had an idea. Calling one of the powdered footmen, she made him change clothes with her. Bill, in the meantime, had met the Count and made him his own. He tore off the nobleman's mustache, and pasted it onto his own face. Then he took the groom's place at the wedding. The ceremony is in progress, when a detective arrives to arrest the Count. Lucille, standing by the footman-bride, is chuckling over the deception about to be practiced on the Count, when she suddenly recognized the feet of Bill. She shrieks, and tears the veil from the footman-bride; the right man is arrested, and Bill and Lucille are married.
