Details:

Three laddies ask and obtain a leave of absence for a day to visit their aged mother. On their way to the old home, they call on three Highland lassies. It is a warm day, the laddies resume their journey, find the heat unusually oppressive and decide to take a swim to cool and refresh themselves. While enjoying their baths and frolicsome sport, the three girls strolling along the bank of the river are seen by the three laddies, who hide from their notice. The lassies suddenly come upon the clothing of their beaus, call their names aloud, and receiving no reply, decide that the boys have been drowned. Gathering up the discarded clothing of the boys, they make haste to report the accident. The laddies hasten to the shore to dress themselves and discover that their clothes have been stolen. Finally each one gathers up a bunch of brush. They reach their mother’s home, who is almost frightened to death. Having no male attire in the house, she has to furnish them with some of her own dresses and hats in order to make the boys presentable. The three girls have by this time reached the barracks and reported to the officers of the laddies’ regiment, showing their clothes as evidence of their statement. The three Highlanders put in an appearance under guard, being forced to report for duty, regardless of their funny “make-ups.” They are court-martialed for losing their uniforms. In the guard house the boys blame each other for their predicament and one after the other starts to cry; gloom and despair written upon their countenances, which soon change to broad smiles when the guard hands each one of them a “Flora de Perfecto,” which they light and complacently smoke with relish.
