A Broken Heart on a Steam Car to Reno
On a crowded train car an Englishman and Ira Lathrop share a bench with a fussy Miss Anne Gattle and a loud, roguish Jimmie Wellington. Wellington roams the car courting sympathy, declaring Reno vows while tangling with Lathrop and drawing a sharp rebuke from the lone, stern observer. The scene blends comic misadventure, temperamental Americans, and a dash of romance as flowers arrive for Mrs Wellington.
