Hartsough Saunters Into a Grand Opera Box Bet Gone Awry
In New York a club cafe tale centers on Cutler Hartsough a known woman hater with dry humor who bets he can circumnavigate the globe in sixty eight days. He travels by train to Chicago then returns to New York where Miss Ethelwyn Wheawill invites him aboard as a traveling companion. After a night at Mrs Clinton’s home he finds his room locked and is jailed by a partner’s trick. He escapes by bribery and wins the opera box promising to repay the cost to Miss Wheawill who had baited him into marriage talk.
