Harry never bargained for what he got in addition, however, for he got a perfectly good job as butler. He was commissioned to take crotchety old man Peach out in his rolling chair. Harry wheeled the old guy to the beach and then promptly forgot about his charge when he heard him snoring and the chair took a little rapid stroll all by its lone and was only saved from destruction by Harry coming to his senses. But somehow the old guy was pleased with Harry, proving again that there is no accounting for crotchety tastes. Harry let the chair bump down the front steps and old man Peach got out and ran. Harry ran, too, and tried to hang himself on the cable rope attached to a street car. Imagine the surprise when the old man handed him $10,000 as a reward for helping him regain the use of his heretofore powerless legs. He is so upset that he allows the street car to ride off while he is still attached to the rope. And all because Harry was fortunate enough to meet with Ima Peach's little dog, Napoleon. Written by
