He happens along the street when a scrubwoman carelessly slips and falls on the ice in front of an automobile. She is not seriously injured, but Bragg is very persistent in giving his card, to appear if needed as a witness, and rather proves himself a nuisance. When he gets to his club he calls several members around him and tells of a most wonderful rescue that he made of a beautiful maiden run down by an automobile, and how he himself carried her to the drug store and took out the proper drugs to administer, and rode home with her in an ambulance, and describes in glowing terms the profound thanks which he received from her parents. Just as he is about to finish, the victim of the accident forces her way into the club with a subpoena to appear as a witness. Fairly caught, the club members give him the laugh and their hilarity prevents him from attempting to explain. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
