Frank Harding was very indignant when his mule balked. Frank was anxious to get down to the fiesta in the great city, and he was aggrieved that fate should delay him by so ordinary a reason as an obstinate mule. Frank heat the mule, and finding him still obstinate, dismounted. Thereupon the mule promptly ran away, and Frank, in a very bad humor, started forth in search of shelter and food. A chance-met peasant, Carlo by name, proved to be the proprietor, a hostelry to which he guided Frank.

It seemed to interest. - The Moving Picture World, January 31, 1914
