Sonny Jim and the Family Party (1915)
Daddy Jim, remembering Aunt Susan's boyhood doughnuts, is delighted to receive an invitation from her to spend Thanksgiving with her, and to bring his family. After a long and tiresome train ride, they find no one at the station to meet them but the driver of a dilapidated Ford. They make the best of it climb in, and after a bone-racking ride over the rough country roads, the little car suddenly stops dead. The driver "reckons they lost some of the machinery back a ways" so all have to get out and walk the rest of the way. Mother Dear and Daddy receive a warm welcome from Auntie, but Sonny is the object of continual teasing by his five little cousins, "The Imps." Trouble follows rapidly, until Sonny unfortunately knocks over a cherished plant of Auntie's and is sent to his room dinnerless. Sonny climbs out of the window and runs back to a roadhouse they had passed, where he makes friends with Tubby, the owner's son. The dinner is spoiled so all go to the roadhouse, where they find the little rascal enjoying a royal dinner. A happy reunion follows.
