Funny Sleeping Car Wife Mixup On Train
A sleeping car conductor recalls a humorous incident where a woman seeking her husband boarded a train at Fort Wayne. She mistook a snoring man in another berth for her spouse, crept to his berth in a nightgown, and woke him by asking for William. The man cried thief, the car woke, and the mistake was revealed when the wife admitted she could not imagine another man could snore like her husband William.
