» » She Married for Love (1914)

Short summary

Rose is going to be married to a deacon, but falls in love with an acrobat instead.
Mrs. Muggs insists that her daughter, Rose, shall marry the Deacon, who is no chicken, but the Deacon is more than willing. Harry Bounce, an acrobat, comes to board with Mrs. Muggs during his vacation. Rose sees him practicing, and thinks she will try it. She gets a lot of black and blue marks, but she is game. Harry, seeing how the ground lies, suggests that she marry him and go on the stage. She is tickled to death with the idea and practices so faithfully that she quickly becomes an efficient tumbler. With the tricks learned, she starts in to get rid of the Deacon. He calls to take her for a walk and soon is startled when she does a cartwheel, but this is nothing to some of her somersaults when they meet a couple of maiden ladies, and that in turn is not as bad as her doing a couple of hand stunts in front of the church pillars. Then the minister wants to consult the Deacon and turns to find Rose walking his clothesline. That's enough for the Deacon. He takes Rose back to her ...

Released as a split reel along with the comedy Love and Title (1914).
