Ludwig Kaldeberg

A foreman’s son and his noble friend, who have voluntarily arrived from Berlin to help out with the harvest, switch their billeting coupons while on the journey, so as to play a trick on the estate owner, who is related to one of them. The wrong boy is asked to sit at the estate owner’s table, while the real relative is pushed off on the servants. And so begins a game of confusion with amusing results.

Millionaire Ambrosius Brown has been robbed in Chicago for the fifth time and is reported missing again shortly after being rescued. In reality, however, he is traveling to Europe with his friend Buddy Drops and his servant Washington. After twenty years in America, he now intends to spend his retirement on his estate in Mecklenburg.
