One morning Billie desired to sleep a little longer than usual, but mother-in-law prevented. She tried to get Lucille to leave him, but she had hopes of reforming Billie and suffered in silence. Ma gave Billie a good deal of punishment. Billie thought if he got somebody else for her to abuse she would probably allow him to live his life as he chose to live it. He succeeded in baiting a man and finally got her married to him, but still all was not well. When ma absolutely refused Billie admittance to the house this was the last straw. He would die, thought Billie, but not without satisfaction first. He hired a gang of thugs to do their worst with ma and pa. Gaining entrance to the house through the window, they tied the happy bride and groom to their beds and then pulled the house down the road to the railroad tracks. Billie had succeeded in overcoming an engineer on an engine, and running the thing at the rate of ninety miles an hour proceeded on his way. In order to save themselves the two had to make a wild jump from the top of the house. When the crash came, happiness is an inadequate word to explain Billie's feeling as he looked back and saw the cause of all his troubles underneath a pile of wreckage. Billie in his glee started to climb to the top of the engine, and not thinking sat on the steam pipe, which blew him sky-high. An eagle picked him up and flew away.
