The Gunbys' Sojourn in the Country

• 1910
• Other, Comedy

The Gunbys are enjoying their day in the country, when Mrs. Gunby, on seeing a beautiful cool-looking little brook, decides to take a swim: whereupon some mischievous lads steal her clothes, and bedeck with same a horse which they find quietly grazing in a nearby field. When they have the animal dressed up to their liking they let him out of the field, and he goes galloping down the village street, causing a regular stampede among the villagers. The substantial-looking owner of the stolen garments, cutting a no less ridiculous figure in her bathing suit as she hurries wildly after the fast disappearing animal, only adds to the excitement and fun. When the terrified animal finally seeks his stable, his bewildered owner, on seeing the fat panting woman in her ridiculous bathing suit hastening after him, rushes to the door and chases her off with his broom.
