Eddie's Little Nightmare (1915)

Eddie calls upon his fiancée, Victoria, to present her with the engagement ring. She keeps him so long, while dressing, that Eddie falls asleep and has a horrible nightmare. He dreams that he is married to Victoria and that they have a large family of children, whom he has left to care for while she goes to a mother's meeting. All the neighbors drop in and leave their children and pandemonium results. The children float their toy boats in the bathtub which overflows; get mixed up in the jam; wreck furniture and create all the havoc possible. The parents return for the children and a wild chase ensues when some of the children get lost. Eddie is wakened from his dream by Victoria who asks him if he has the ring. He tells her that he has not, but has come over to say good-bye to her as he is sailing for the Fiji Islands in the morning, having taken a position as missionary to the natives. He leaves Victoria and congratulates himself on his single blessedness.
