Above, furnishings for the smartly decorated office in 1908 (shoutout to my pals at Allsteel!) Below, the postmaster receives a letter from a 60-year-old widow asking his help in finding a man … A modest appearance conceals the heart of a kleptomaniac … A woman dies of a broken heart after being abandoned by her husband–a theater executive who ran off with a chorus girl … Two Japanese women suspected of being illegal immigrants are held in a secret location to prevent their friends from helping them escape … All is not well in the world of Los Angeles’ sainted streetcar system. A proposed line from Pasadena to Hollywood via Eagle Rock runs into opposition from Col. Griffith J. Griffith and Henry E. Huntington … And a young lovelorn woman tries to commit suicide with toothache medicine, but the driver of the new police automobile hits every bump and pothole in the road en route to the hospital and the rough ride revives her.
