He accepts. They have a little trouble running the machine along the road, but finally reach Miss Booick's laundry, where the foreman, a rough, uncouth person, meets them. She elects Jimmy manager of her laundry, and the foreman immediately begins to show jealousy and hatred. His passion getting the better of him, the foreman secures the aid of his allies, and there are several attempts made on Jim's life, but each time Miss Booick interferes and saves it. He does not care for her love-making, having a weakness for blondes. She tries to force him into marrying her, and managing to turn her jealous mind onto a little game of "eeny-meeny-miny-mo", runs away with the "blonde". The foreman again calls her attention to Jimmy's deceit - and she promises to be his wife if he will catch him. Getting the preacher, Miss Booick and the foreman and his allies give chase while Jimmy and the blonde rush on in the small car. On a scenic railway Jimmy manages to overpower the foreman and throw him over the tracks. And the chase begins all over again, finally ending by Jimmy and the girl in the car flying over a cliff. Followed by the other crowd, who have left their car in the rear, there is quite a shakeup when the ground or overhang of the cliff gives way - and all are thrown to the ground below. The preacher manages to make Jim and the girl "one" as both over come, become unconscious as the picture closes. Written by Copyright Description from Library of Congress See less
