A breezy, old-fashioned romp with mistaken identity, a cross-country chase, and a stubbornly romantic detour.

Wycoff escapes custody and flees across the country with the law in hot pursuit, refusing to establish either his true identity or his innocence until the lady unwillingly trapped at his side agrees to marry him.
