He was nothing more than a janitor, but with his fine looks and clothes he impressed her very much. Her father had a janitor who got fresh with the head janitor and father fired him, but father made a sad mistake when he left the safe open and the said janitor grabbed all the kale in sight and skipped with it without the least compunction. Daughter was married and they were getting along fine on father's money, when she happened to read an article wherein it stated that poor Mr. Broke was busted and had to pawn his furniture to buy bread and eats. She went to hubby and asked him if father and mother could not enjoy their old age with them. Being a good-natured fellow he readily consented to their spending their reclining years with them in their magnificent home. They arrived, but it was a sad reception father got when he looked into the eyes of his deposed janitor, now his son-in-law. Father took a wallop at him and son-in-law raced from the house into jitney and away, with father and the cops in hot pursuit. Written by
