Jeremiah Green receives a letter from his niece, stating that she is coming west, and is in the market for a husband. The news scatters fast throughout the western town, and when the fair Sophie arrives, her callers are numerous. One look at the three-hundred-pound debutante is enough to convince the men that they are not eligible for the marriage certificate, especially if Sophie is to be the bride. Many are the humorous incidents brought about by Sophie trying to capture one of the men for a husband, and the way they elude her affords great amusement for the onlooker.
