A Quiet Little Game (1915)
Peter Fuss and Jack Henry, being invited to sit in a game of poker, write fake telegrams to their wives telling them they have been called out of the city. The undertaker is one of the members of the party and loses all his money. In the midst of the game the constable knocks at the door. All except Fuss and Henry leap out of the window. They climb up a chimney and flee to the undertaker's house, where, exhausted, they drop asleep in his bed. In the meantime the two wives have heard their husbands were killed in a wreck. They go to the undertaker's shop and he shows them their sleeping husbands all begrimed from their trip through the chimney. The wives pay the undertaker to care for the bodies. When the husbands return home they find crepe on their doors. They vow never to play again.
