This is a farcial sketch in which the wife mistakes a note in the husband's pocket referring to "Nelly" is a dog. The husband is a doctor and the wife a suffragette. The third member of the cast "doubles" as a flip and rube bellboy. The usual mistaken identity and chasing in and out of the doors is resorted to.
The audience was delighted with the act.
The best member of the cast is the man who plays the husband. He conducts himself as if he has been playing Irish character roles for years; he is constantly falling into the Celtic dialect.
