Review: The story deals with a young wife who, thinking her husband had gone out ‘his fun’, invited a fashionably dressed hap, who was a waiter at one of the colored cafes on State Street to dine. However, the husband did not go out and, upon returning home, found wifey sitting at the table serving the waiter all the delicacies of the season. Mr. Husband proceeds to get his revolver, which he uses very carelessly, running the unwelcome visitor to his home. Then the waiter gets his revolver and returns the compliment. However, nobody is hurt, despite all the shooting and all ends happily” – review excerpted from the New York Age, 9/25/13.
