The family physician examines the child and tells her parents that she can be cured by an operation, but the operation will cost $500. Her parents decide to have the operation performed. The father, who is a messenger, is obliged to mortgage the home to pay for it. Preparations having been made, the surgeon, his assistant and the nurse go to the house and proceed with their delicate performance. Mr. Mason, unable to stay at home, is compelled to go to work as usual. Among other things billed is a pine box containing a body. In transit on this trip he also carries a large amount of gold dust. When the train is underway and he is busy with his billing, the lid of the box opens and a convict who escaped from jail by hiding himself in this way, peers out. Mason sees the reflection in the door of the safe, which is a new one, and dodges behind it, grabbing his gun at the same time. He fires through the pine box, the convict surrenders, but not without a struggle. Mason, after forcing the convict back into the box, nails the lid down, makes out a new label and ships the prisoner to the penitentiary from which he had fled. The operation on little Margaret proves successful. A reward of $1,000 had been posted for the capture of the convict and is paid to Mr. Mason. This enables him to pay the surgeon and clear the mortgage from their home. Little Margaret fully recovers and her little friends join with her parents in making merry.
