Ham notices the diamond ring she is wearing. But Farmer Cornstalk notices Ham, and Ham sees his pitchfork, so he and Bud make a hurried exit. The secret order of the Battered Hat votes that one of their band must get food for the rest. They play for it, and Hungry Henry is the "goat." When he arrives at Farmer Cornstalk's cottage it fares ill with him. Tattered and torn, he returns to the band, and finds two new members, Ham and Bud. The entire band starts off to raid the home of the farmer who "beat up" Hungry Henry. Ham and Bud remain behind. After making Farmer Cornstalk and his daughter prisoners, the hobos divide the spoils. To Ham is given the diamond ring, which he recognizes. To the rescue. Our valiant vagrants succeed in freeing the prisoners when the band of hobos arrive, and a battle follows. Ham and Bud climb to the roof, demolish the chimney, and use the bricks to bombard the hostile hobos, who soon fall victims to the attack. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
