Synopsis: [?] [From The Moving Picture World]? They were on their summer vacation at the time, and eats were decidedly scarce. Muggsy was for robbing a hen roost, but Larry spied the Holy Groaners. With open arms they received the new prophet into their midst. He declared that the end of the world was at hand. It was Larry who collected the Groaner’s worldly goods, which they now no longer needed. He lingered for more graft. The real prophet appeared. Poor Larry.
