While an up-to-date Romeo climbs the garden wall to kiss his Juliet, her father appears and takes off his daughter and dismisses her suitor. Romeo, however, dresses up like a brigand and accompanied by three friends holds up the irascible father and binds him to a tree. Romeo then meets his lady love who joins in the plot, and a letter is sent to her father that he must pay a ransom of $1,000 for the recovery of his daughter. In his trouble the father confides in Romeo, who undertakes to get the daughter back. This is of course an easy matter, and there is then no objection to the marriage of Romeo and the girl. |
