Like most Carter DeHaven silent short comedies this one is a gem and holds up well!

Warning: Spoilers
SPOILERS: 2 reel comedy about a husband pawning his wife's wedding ring without her knowledge so he can make a quick stock investment. When news comes that his mother-in-law (the diamond expert) will arrive that night the husband who had asked the jeweler to switch an imitation stone panics. However the wife picked up the ring before the switch could be made and the husband thinking he's hiding the fake stone gives the ring to a street vendors monkey and claims thieft. Then the husband gets a call from the jeweler stating he never had time to make the switch and the diamond is real. Chase scene shenanigans of husband chasing monkey when his hat catches on fire and he spreads the flames around the neighborhood before he realizes it. Eventually he gets the ring back from the monkey's owner after he uses a stranger to knock him out. When his stocks come in he buys his mother-in-law a gift and his wife gets her original ring back, all is well. LS viewed 6/19/2017 on nitrate film.
