Bad Boy and the Gardener

A lady watering the garden with a hose, a mischievous boy stops the flow of water until she looks for the cause, when he permits the water to flow, resulting in the lady taking an unexpected bath. The father then appears and chastises the youthful culprit. One of the best films ever made.

The garden scene was humorous, inasmuch as the bad boy was getting in his work on the gardener by dowsing him with water, though he finally gets caught and receives a licking.
Boston Herald, Boston, mardi 28 juillet 1896, p. 7.
A very funny scene was that between "The Gardener and the Bad Boy," in which the latter steps on a hose and prevents the flow of water, but when the gardener and the lady put their heads together to discover what is the matter with the nozzle, the boy releases the pent up water, with the result that the investigators get an unlooked-for douche.
