Tom Clark and his wife, Dorothy, visit Tom’s parents. Whilst there the Clarks, father and son, receive an intimation that Mr. Clark’s uncle has left them ten thousand dollars on condition that they provide for his beloved sister, Bertha. Aunt Betty arrives with a parrot, a Kodak, several band boxes and a homely face. She soon palls and her lot is hard. The men are barely civil and the ladies refuse to discuss the fashions with her. In order to escape from Aunty for a while, the family go to the shore. Betty gets lonesome and follows them; the Kodak goes too. Aunty sees Mr. Clark and Tom flirting with two persons on the beach. Aunty snaps. The Clarks see the proofs and are at their wits’ ends to propitiate Aunty. It takes diplomacy and $2000 worth of gifts to accomplish this end and Aunty Betty is able to flaunt a magnificent gown and plumes as she steps majestically from the steps of the Clark residence. |
