About All Aboard
Harold loves a rich girl whose father means her to marry a baron. To shake Harold off, the father books a steamer for Bermuda. Harold stows away, shares a stateroom with the baron, and rides a trunk between the cabins. A destroyer stops the ship. Harold is credited with catching a crook, collects a reward, and gets the girl.
