Synopsis

Biograph summary: A novel automobile hold-up in which two gentlemen bandits in fur coats and all the other characteristic automobile toggery start out in a big French touring car on a pirating cruise along the highway. Their first intended victims are a young man and woman out for a spin in a light Oldsmobile. There is an exciting chase in which the light runabout wins out, the larger machine breaking down. As a finish the country constables are notified and arrive on the scene just in time to nab the two bandits and take them away in their own machine.
