A Play in One Scene by Ben R. Gibbs.

When old Rhys ap Richard has the ancient Grandfather's clock taken from his house to be sold, we learn that the activities of a Highwayman are responsible for this sudden uprooting of a family heirloom.
His daughter Gwynneth is less concerned with heirlooms than with her father's prejudice against her lover, and the said lover independently comes to the conclusion that he must cut a more manly figure in the old man's eyes.
Scene: Rhys ap Richard's old Welsh house.
The time of the action is evening in the winter of the year 1802.
After an evening in the open by the roadside fire there comes drowsiness. The highwayman peril is over, and we have met the pair who have been to Gretna Green. The beat of the horses' feet dies in the distance, the fire smoulders and we settle down for the night, to the rhythm of Galloping Home.
