The Fur Coat (1910)
A wealthy young man about to leave the house is handed his overcoat by his valet. Thinking it is too warm, he refuses it. The valet hangs it out of the window to give it an airing, and it falls out. A tramp picks it up and takes it to a pawnshop; he loses the ticket, which is found by a young lady. She immediately redeems the coat, takes it to her employer, a poor lawyer, and offers it to him as a present. The husband, afraid to take the coat home, pawns it for a small amount and gives the ticket to his wife, asking her to redeem it for him. The next day the owner of the coat, a friend of the lawyer, calls on the wife and gives her theater tickets and sees the pawn ticket in her hand. He goes to the pawnshop with her to see if it is not his coat. Upon arriving there, he finds it is his coat, redeems it himself and goes away with it. He calls at the lawyer's office to explain the result of the pawn ticket. The lawyer claims it and in the scuffle the coat is accidentally thrown out of the window and the tramp again finds it and pawns it and spends the proceeds for a good feed and drink.
