He also has a rival in Tom Lusk. Si seems to be the favored one by Bess. The wedding day arrives and Si's mother makes preparation for the function. Friends are invited and everyone seems to take a living interest in the affair, but Si, is continually falling asleep. His rival, Tom, calls and finds Si on the verge of another nap. Tom makes the beat of the situation by being attentive to Bess. The hour of the wedding arrives. The minister and the guests have arrived, but Si does not show up, he having fallen asleep as he went to dress for the ceremony. Bess starts to cry and leaves the room. Tom follows and persuades her to marry him. She consents; they return to the parlor and the knot is tied. The boys wondering where Si is go to hunt for him. They find him asleep in his room. The blowing of their horns wakes him up and he is informed that his girl has married Tom. He yawns, stretches and says, "Well, in that case. I will finish my sleep."
