Synopsis
Penrod and Sam, two inseparable boys, organize a secret society and exclude Georgie Bassett and Rodney Bitts from the fraternity. When the lot on which the boys play is sold by Penrod's father to Mr. Bitts, Rodney refuses to allow Penrod to play there. Penrod is griefstricken because his pet dog, which recently died, is buried on the lot. Penrod's father sees his son's distress, buys back the lot, and gives it to Penrod.
