In the Family Herald tale Hetty faces Mrs. Brown's reproach after a pocket-picking incident. The elder relays a meeting with Mr. Taylor who promised to help recover the stolen property, while Hetty contemplates a puzzling remark about a young man and an omnibus.
Hetty stands scared as a young man she met is taken to the lock up and a thief known as Gentleman Jim is arrested. A lawyer summons Hetty to identify a purse bearing her name found on the thief. Mr Brown and Mrs Brown prepare to accompany her to identify the item at the lawyer’s office.
The item compiles short quips about marriage and social quirks. It notes James Agan's recent wedding and a humorous court action about adding a letter to a word. A child’s joke about knowing his father and his wife, a comical poet, a girl scaring a mouse, and an old maid with a dog and a tailor dummy illustrate light social humor.
