The Duponts decide to move to their summer home. Ham and Bud are ordered to transport the Dupont household effects. By this time, Ham's and Bud's ambitions have died down somewhat. They languidly pile the furniture aboard the motor truck and set out for the country. After losing a few pieces of furniture on the way, the two spy a circus. Deserting the van, Ham and Bud try to take in the show. But the Boss Canvasman sees the adventurers crawling under the tent, and assisted by a barrel stave, convinces Ham and Bud that they don't want to see the show. By this time, night has fallen. Tired because of their exertions, the moving men run their van into a meadow, and after unloading bed and bedding, go to sleep. In the meantime, the Duponts frantically endeavor to trace the whereabouts of their furniture. Unsuccessful, they are compelled to sleep on a couple of soft spots on the floor of the cottage. Ham and Bud awake bright and early. By the time they arrive at the Duponts' cottage, Dupont is ready to commit murder. Menaced by his revolver, the moving men work at top speed in unloading the furniture. Then comes the discovery that all the shots in the weapon have been discharged. Inspecting the pistol to make sure. Ham turns upon Dupont, knocks him down, and then blithely trips away with his little pal. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
