The note which accompanies the package is signed "Adelbert," and requests that it be worn for his sake, in remembrance of days past. Clara examines the coat, then sits gazing at it, lost in perplexed meditation. Finally she rises, packs the coat, puts on her wraps, and goes out and pawns the coat. That night at dinner, Clara hands her husband Walter a pawn ticket, explaining to him that she found it and asking him to look into the matter the next day and see if it amounts to anything. The following afternoon Clara makes a casual inquiry in regard to the pawn ticket. McPhail says he forgot about it, but will drop into the pawn shop and look it up. However, he does not mention the matter next evening on his return from work. The next day she decides to go on a little shopping expedition, and calls at her husband's office to request some money. McPhail turns to the stenographer and requests her to get the money for him. With a superior air, Nellie calmly gets up from her desk, walks to the closet, and appears a moment later gaily bedecked in the fur-trimmed coat. McPhail continues turning over the papers on his desk, wholly unconscious of the shock his wife has received upon observing the coat in the stenographer's possession. Clara says nothing, but she registers a vow that there shall soon be a settlement with Friend Husband. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
