The next day at the breakfast table Mr. Gold receives a black-hand letter, and the whole family become panic-stricken. Two detectives, Pokes and Jabs, are summoned, and they both fall in love with Jennie, the daughter, and it becomes a three-way fight between Pokes, Jabs, and Percy. Pokes wins and the engagement is announced. The wedding day arrives, and when the parson says, "If anyone knows any reason why this couple should not wed, etc.," a tall, stout woman, with nine children, rushes in and throws herself on Pokes' breast, while the children cry, "Pop. O, Pop!" Unable to explain, Pokes beats it, followed by the children, and when all is quiet the woman lifts her veil, disclosing Jabs, who chuckles to himself, "If I can't win her, you shall not have her either."
