The Horse and the Haystack

• Watchlist

Mr. Brown and his family, who are spending the holidays at a seaside resort, decide for one day's entertainment, to drive along the shores. Forthwith a pony cart is secured and they merrily go on their way, passing numerous interesting scenes before they arrive at a bathing beach which attracts them so greatly that they leave their pony cart outfit near a stack of hay while they disport themselves in the ocean. While they are giving a very humorous exhibition in the water, the pony is busily engaged in eating his way through the stack. As the stack diminishes the animal grows until when the party are ready to return their pony has grown to be a large horse. As they proceed upon their journey they find the large animal has no trouble to manage his route without regard to their directions in any way. They are led through many exciting experiences, including a most laugh-provoking ride at full speed through a deep forest, whirling about among the trees in a perfectly amazing manner. The horse finally manages to break the harness and liberates himself, leaving the unfortunate Brown family to pull their carriage back to their home.
