Fragmented tale recounts a horse sale scam ending with a rail death and a temperance lecturer. A farmer, buyer, and friend clash over money, tickets, and a cold horse while a quiet audience member challenges the scene. The piece satirizes fraud and moralizing.
A collection of clipped exchanges and wry quips from a bygone era includes a farmer's rally line about overtime and age defiance, jokes about ducks and deducts, and a speaker praising a wife while others poke fun at political zeal and salesmanship.
