Little Joe's Escape From the Italian Padrone
Little Joe, a newsboy, endures capture by an organ grinder and a brutal rescue by Mrs Webster. He recovers with kindness at the Webster farm, receives money for care and a new wardrobe, and plans to reunite with Alice and the dog Doctor as he travels back to New York. He is aided by Slip Johnson and other newsboys and meets a veterinarian who urges him to rest and seek medical care. The chapter ends with Joe riding to meet the doctor and a warning to see a physician after the journey home.
