Groucho&apos;s Quiet Fourth

Mr. Groucho could not bear the noise of the celebration of Independence about his house, and when a crowd of youngsters stop in front of his house and commence shooting firecrackers, Groucho flies to the quietude of the country and is just beginning to enjoy his rest when a sham battle occurs and he is again driven forth. He next seeks a quiet Fourth on board a pleasure boat, but, unfortunately, the other passengers are bent on celebrating the glorious Fourth and Groucho is compelled to leap into the river to escape the noise of young and old America. Ah! A though has struck Groucho and he hurries to the cemetery, here indeed he thinks of finding it quiet, but Groucho did not know of the burial of a soldier and when the sound of the volley being fired over the soldier's grave reaches the ears of Groucho, he hurriedly decamps, seeking other quarters. Next Groucho comes to a sanitarium and falls from exhaustion. The superintendent of the sanitarium being a patriotic citizen has gathered his patients on the lawn in front of the sanitarium and they begin to celebrate in the usual noisy way. Groucho tries to run away from this scene, but is seen by the doctor and patients, who immediately give chase. After Groucho has been captured he is pronounced insane by the doctor and locked in a padded cell. As Groucho is peering forth between the bars of his window, a keeper sets off a box of firecrackers and poor Groucho is compelled to bear it all.
