The Surprise Party Surprised (1912)
One evening Farmer John Marson, his wife and two daughters, Ruth, about 20, and Pearl, 8 years old, were taken by storm with a surprise party. While the party was in full swing a wagon load of orphans bound for the asylum broke down near the house. Pearl got busy and invited all of the kiddies into the house. As they looked hungry she led the way to the store room and immediately started to investigate the baskets of "goodies" brought in by the guests. The children had a feast. Time for refreshments arrived and Mama and Ruth explored the store-room. The baskets were empty and the little orphans, worn out by their feast and fun, were half asleep. This was an unexpected condition for the party, but they took it good-naturedly and laughed it off as a good joke.
