In the South, black servants are called away from their chores by the arrival of Robert E. Lee Gurgle and his niece Peg, who are proprietors of a traveling patent medicine show. Following the performance of a song and dance, their sales are hastened when Colonel Robert E. Lee Peachtree, the plantation owner, agrees to buy each of his workers a bottle of the elixir. Feeling friendly toward Gurgle because of their common name, Peachtree comes to Gurgle's assistance when Sheriff Nathan Bedford Forrest Rider tries to arrest the Gurgles for not having a peddler's license. While the sheriff has Gurgle remove a bad tooth, the colonel lies that the Gurgle's caravan is one of his own investments. Peachtree's rescue plan backfires, however, when the sheriff places a lien on the cart to satisfy his creditors. Stranded, the Gurgles stay on as guests at the Peachtree mansion
