A stray fox terrier named Puggie frees himself from Miss Lucinda Lay’s yard and befriends a larger dog named Rodger. They explore streets and a park with chances for play, avoiding sharp eyes and the risk of being brought back to confinement.

A garbled historical vignette recounts Stephenson and his locomotive trial on the Stockton and Darlington line in 1885 with figures like George Stephenson and Edward Pevy named.
