RUNAWAY JUNE (Episode 12) (Two Reels) By George Randolph Chester and Lillian Chester March 31, 1915 r CAST June Warner Norma Phillips Ned Warner J. W. Johnston Gilbert Blye Arthur Donaldson Tommy Thomas Marguerite Loveridge Charles Cunningham ; Charles Mason Mrs. Villard Elizabeth Drew Marie Evelyn Dumo Durban, the artist Arthur Forbes NED, after a sharp, heroic struggle with Blye's hirelings, was borne off to one of the strongly barred cabins of the yacht. The next day he was brought, like a prisoner before a judge, into the presence of the man with the black vandyke, who promised the unhappy young husband that if he would leave June unmolested for five days, at the end of that time he should have her back, safe and sound. Ned gulped and pledged his word. Then he was set free, to go and come as he pleased. Meanwhile, June had made the acquaintance of Durban, the artist, who, with his rich wife, had taken a handsome villa in Bermuda for the winter. He made no secret of the fact that he had married this woman for her money. Also, in a cottage apart, he supported a pretty little model, Mimi, upon whom, for the time being, he had settled his changeable affections. The day before, Durban had had a rather upsetting scene with Amy, a girl of the neighborhood, whom he had engaged to pose for a picture that was not in Mimi's line. Because of this he was all the more willing to allow himself to be attracted to June ; in her he could forget his recent chagrin. One morning early he chanced to come upon June as she stood drinking in the sun and air on the beach ; and induced her to pose. Suddenly she found herself struggling in his close embrace. She fought herself free and fled. Realizing presently that he no longer was following her, she turned and saw that he had been caught in the quicksands. Nothing more awful than the end of this self-indulgent man ever was witnessed by the runaway bride.
