This is done and the garment placed upon the line to dry. Now young O'Reilly joins in a game of marbles with O'Brien's youngest son, and before long they engage in a very energetic scrap. The sounds of battle reach the ears of the two families and in a moment they meet in the back yard where they find the newly washed shirt trampled in the dirt. O'Briens side with O'Briens and O'Reillys with O'Reillys. A policeman comes along just in time to prevent a general battle. The next morning Michael stops at his front gate to pass a few words with his heart's desire, Maggie. The late feud has passed these two by and in the passage of honeyed nothings Michael tarries too long, with the result that he is late at the factory. O'Reilly, who is foreman, still angry over yesterday's fracas, will not admit the young man, but fires him. The next day Michael sees a chance to get even. He finds the cop on the beat asleep in the back room of a saloon, and taking the policeman's helmet and coat, parades as one of the finest before his admiring sweetheart. He tells his wondering relatives that he has got a job on the force and is asked by his father to arrest O'Reilly, who thrashed the youngest O'Brien for taking a pie which he found on the O'Reilly windowsill. Michael does so, but seizes the opportunity to tell O'Reilly that he'll let him off on receiving permission to marry his daughter. The marriage is performed in a hurry, and none too soon, as the real cop comes along looking for trouble. But matters are finally patched up by the united families, who plead successfully for the honor of the family. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
