Mutt and Jeff and the Country Judge (1911)
Mutt and Jeff are seen wandering down the country road, thinking all sorts of despairing thoughts, and unaware of the friendly greetings, the ready bows and the sweet whispers of trees, grass and zephyrs. On Jeff's face one may see Dante's Inferno, while Mutt's shrinking visage is too eloquent for mere words. Suddenly his optics twinkle and shoot forth a shaft of hope upon the hopeless Jeff. Mutt has an idea that is sure to work well. If the banking business is bad, why not try automobiling? There are plenty of autos whizzing past the country road; all that Jeff has to do is to "get in touch" with one of the horseless things, and, well, leave it to Mutt to collect damages. Like all the ideas propounded by Mutt, this one also gains the disapproval of Jeff. He cannot see why he should be the goat and buck a bucking automobile. Mutt's logic, however, finally overmasters the unhappy little fellow and he's ready for the sacrifice. The plan is finely executed, for Jeff gets fairly well mussed up and Mutt gets ten dollars for, funeral expenses. A series of serious things befall the crafty Mutt, who is finally made to "cough up" that accursed ten-spot.
