Love and an Upto-Date Cottage
A man recalls abandoning leisure for work after draining his fortune, pawned possessions, and rented a garret as he becomes a real estate agent. He finally exchanges for a cottage, meets a daugherly beauty, gains a commission, and in tears recalls the last dollar he once wrote on a bill. The tale blends hardship with a phoenix-like return to wealth and a moral about money.
