A fragmented reminiscence recounts a married couple’s early years in Chicago. The narrator, a piano salesman earning about £150 monthly, details tight finances, groceries, rent, debts, and the strain of modest wages on married life and plans for the future.
A young couple recounts obtaining an old automobile as a wedding gift from Sadie’s father. The car proves impractical and costly, lingering as a daily negotiation with freight charges, railroad delays, and a stubborn, three-year-old engine while they navigate romance and financial strain.
The narrator recalls a summer with the car Josephine, a temperamental Empress of a machine. It leaks water jackets, slips belts, roars and backfires. Repairs loom after lemon-squeezing expenses and endless breakdowns, while Sadie feeds the budget and battles the machine’s stubborn will.
A humorous tale follows a family and their stubborn car Josephine. When burglars steal the car the narrator and the Withershanks pursue it through country roads aided by a mob and police. They uncover Josephine guiding the trail and rescue the scene as the culprits surrender, then keep the car and the peace.
