15 min. F.S. This is an amusing and typical London Music Hall sketch, but not on the pretentious lines of the Karno acts. The comedy is furnished principally by the four horses that are trained to play various tricks on a prospective purchaser, winding up with his smashing through a summer house, bringing up the act up to a good close. Some clever bits of humor that get laughter, but not in the headline class of English comedy. Rightly placed on the bill.
