The Mayor of Hamelin

The Mayor of Hamelin is the main antagonist from the Silly Symphony short The Pied Piper.

The Pied Piper
The Mayor of Hamelin is a middle-age man who has to face to an army of rats that have invaded the Town of Hamelin.A young man, The Pied Piper is volunteer. By playing his pipe, he hypnotizes them and puts them in pursuit of a giant piece of cheese that does not exist.

However, the mayor and people of Hamelin shows themselves to be thankless by giving him only a single gold coin instead of the promised bag of gold; claiming that the rats left of their own accord while the Piper played on his instrument. Incensed by their betrayal and deciding that their children deserved better than to be allowed to grow up like the corrupt townspeople, The Piper uses his music to lead all the village children out of Hamelin and into an enchanted world where they can play and laugh all day long. The townspeople are angry and possibly executed or imposed a exil to the Mayor.
