The Decision of Jim O'Farrell (1914)
Jim O'Farrell owned the best paying livery stable in town. He had always been a good husband, and had a sincere love for his wife Anita, but the habits and late hours incident to driving traveling men on trips into the country had its effect. Mrs. Wilcox, an attractive widow, thought Jim an exceptionally handsome fellow and did not discourage the casual attentions which he began to pay her. In the meantime, Anita nursed her baby at home alone, and at times wondered where her big, strong husband was. It remained for Ellen Collins, the house-to-house distributor of milk and gossip, to put Anita wise to the conditions, which, according to neighborhood gossip, were growing worse all the time. Jim was becoming more and more ensnared of the guileful Mrs. Wilcox. Then it happened all of a sudden. Anita was sick and delirious. Faithful Ellen was nursing her. While Ellen left the room, Anita, in her delirium, sprang out of bed, threw one of Jim's coats over her shoulders, took a revolver from the bureau, and stormed the Wilcox cottage. One shot from the revolver missed Mrs. Wilcox, but it brought Jim home to his wife and baby.
