Joe is afraid of ghosts and Harry determines to play a joke on him. During the night he puts a bed sheet over himself and goes into Joe's room. Joe gets up and starts to run. Harry chases him around the house and father, hearing the noise, gets up to investigate. Joe gets his gun and retreats from the house with father after him. Mistaking the old man for the ghost, he shoots and wounds him in the hand. The boys sneak back to the house, later, and to bed. Father gets the doctor. In the morning Joe imagines that it was a dream. As he finishes telling of it at the breakfast table, father enters and relates how a fool shot him in the hand. Joe realizes his mistake and beats a hasty retreat. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
