Plot

[edit]

Donald Welling wants to marry a young woman, whose father opposes their marriage. Donald fools the father into believing he has a magical fish bait, and demonstrates by secretly attaching a live fish to father's line when he isn't looking. The father consents to the wedding. Donald, meanwhile, encounters a multitude of friends and they make him believe he is crazy to think of marrying. Eventually Donald is convinced that they are right, and chooses to abandon the idea of marriage entirely.[2]
