abounds with laughter. Th e son and daughter of the miser fall in love
and are about to declare their intentions when the miser announces his
own wedding plans: he, to the girl with whom his son is in love, and his
wealthy friend, to his daughter. Aft er a few rollicking laps around the
block in which the miser's hidden treasure figures, it is revealed that
the rich friend is the long lost father of the boy who loves the miser's
daughter and of the girl who is loved by the miser's son.-3 women, 11
