I am taking the twins and going where you will never see me again. Matilda." Little Alma, his favorite twin, entered as her father was reading the note, her mother having returned to get the other twin's hat, and so Cyrus hurried her to the train with him and they were soon on their way out West. Matilda searched diligently for Alma, but hearing nothing from either Cyrus or the child, decided that they were both dead. Many years later, Cyrus and Alma, now "full grown" are seen in the west, while Elma, the other twin (also full grown) now married, starts west on a visit with her husband and mother. Chance brings them to the same town and trouble begins. Alma's friends mistake Elma for her sister, while Patsy, Elma's husband, after quarreling with his wife on this account, follows Alma home, and enters her abode to beg forgiveness. Her screams bring Cyrus to the scene, who throws Patsy out and turns him over to an officer. The next morning the twins and their father and mother arrive at court and a general reunion takes place.
