He has won the enmity of Ben Hoggs because Ben thinks he is trying to steal his girl from him, though this is the last thing Tom would think of. Ben writes an anonymous letter to Tess, Tom's wife, and accuses Tom of being a "chicken stealer," telling the sort of "chickens" he means, and Tom has to do some tall explaining. Tom gets word that the chickens will be in on the afternoon train and goes to get them. He drops the letter and Tess gets it. She goes to the train, too. As luck would have it, there is a burlesque show, "all girls" on the train, and Tess thinks those are the expected chickens. Even after Tom fully explains she still has her suspicions.
