剧情简介: An old sheriff is seen in the parlor of his dwelling playing with his child and enjoying all the comforts of home, when a messenger arrives with a notice to go to a house and eject two tenants against whom a judgment has been issued. Ever faithful to his duty, he is seen kissing his wife and little one good-bye and is soon on the highway, starting out to perform his official duty. Arriving at the house he is admitted to the first apartment, but when he explains the nature of his mission he is unceremoniously kicked out. He gets back, however, but this time the man takes a revolver from the wall and fires several times, thereby scaring the old fellow so that he quickly takes his departure. We next see him proceeding up the stairs to the next apartment, and upon reaching the bell cord he gives no gentle pull. Inside are the man and woman packing up all their movable stuff and throwing it out the window to avoid seizure. Finally the man hides behind the draperies, and the woman in a very coquettish manner opens the door and admits the minister of the law. Being very susceptible, he forgets his official capacity and proceeds to flirt with the good looking woman. She is making things interesting for him when the husband comes from under cover and binds the gay old bird hand and foot, and then, after secreting him in a cabinet, proceeds to lower it to the street through the window. As it is on its way, a man in a window on a lower floor cuts the rope, and down comes the cabinet with a bump to the sidewalk. Two men are passing and gather up all the bundles and load them with the cabinet into a cart and start away down the street. We next see them as they are turning a corner colliding with a carriage, and in the ensuing controversy between the cabby and the thieves, the police are attracted, and in the excitement the fellows make good their escape and leave the load to the police officers. Finally we see them taking the cart and its contents to the station, and upon opening the box find the old sheriff, who is in such a cramped position that horses are procured and hitched to each of his four limbs to stretch him out into his natural form again. He is restored to his family, apparently none the worse for his terrible experience.
