Synopsis

The Tramp is hired by a man to wheel his invalid uncle around a seaside park for a while. Although he begins his new job with enthusiasm, the Tramp soon thinks he should be earning extra money for his efforts to spend at a nearby saloon. Accordingly, he takes a beggar's sign and tin and puts them on the wheelchair of the man he is taking care of. As soon as someone puts money into the tin, the Tramp takes the money and spends it at the saloon. The film ends in chaos that involves the Tramp, a pretty girl, the beggar, two park policemen, the old man, and the old man's nephew.
