The town boys gather around and daddy perforce must use his driving whip to drive the girls' sweethearts away from them. They go into the village store and while daddy is buying vinegar, the four girls and their sweethearts spoon behind flour barrels and in nooks about the store. The merry widow comes to town and daddy falls in love with her while he drives her home. The girls and boys make the most of their opportunities and run away to get married. Arrived at the office of the justice of the peace, they fulfill their intentions and daddy wanders in to buy a marriage license. But the fickle widow denies him and takes the justice of the peace himself. The justice faints, however, and the Merry Widow remains a widow. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
