On a journey to grandmother's Matt spends the night beside the road. He hides his few pennies safely under a stone. When the boy is fast asleep, a scoundrel steals the money. Matt wakes to find his breakfast money gone. The nearby village Chief charges the stone with stealing Matt's money. At the trial, the rock remains silent, but the crowd laughs out loud and is fined one penny each for the disturbance. The chief awards the pennies to Matt, who buys his breakfast and goes happily on his way.
