She was obdurate and insisted on her choice. Bill made his usual call and father met him at the door and unceremoniously kicked Bill out, giving his little daughter to understand that Bill was no more to be allowed the hospitality of his roof. Father forgot to cover his tracks thoroughly enough, and also to note the thickness of a wall separating his affinity from Bill's apartment. Bill was an athlete, and in his practicing he slipped from a trapeze and slid gracefully through a wall into the adjoining apartment where papa was just in the act of embracing his affinity. Bill had the goods on father then, as father, in his hasty exit, left his hat behind. So Bill, in possession of the hat, marched in to father and threatened to tell his wife and daughter on him unless he was allowed to marry his daughter. Father had to agree, but hardly did he secure possession of his silk tile before he changed his mind and again told sweet sixteen that Bill was not to be allowed entrance to his house. Sweet Sixteen makes her report to Bill on the sly and Bill calls father to account for his changeableness and urges father to come to his apartment where after a little argument with the fist, father agrees. Everything was moving nicely until the minister accidentally stepped on Bill's foot and demanded the removal of a beautiful silk hat which Bill was very proud of. Bill resented the minister's interference and demanded satisfaction, and so took him to his gymnasium, and was going to trim him, but the minister, in his youth, had been thoroughly trained in the manly art of self-defense and turned the tables on Bill. He thrashed Bill all over the apartment house, out in the street, and so strenuously did they fight that they caved in floors and landed in the basement which was full of water.
