The Runaway Bride_

Mary Gray elopes to Atlantic City, NJ, but begins having second thoughts about the marriage.

Desperate, Mary trusts the shifty chambermaid Clara who whisks her away to the mansion of wealthy George Blaine. There, Mary must pretend to be a lowly cook, but that seems better than sticking with the guy she was engaged to.
