Mister Ron's Basement #1770

It is sometimes difficult to believe that the hysterically funny stories of W. L.Alden were published so long ago. From 1878, we hear the sad tale of a young man in love wearing shoes that are way too tight. It is called 'A Chicago Idyl.'

Time: approx nine and a half minutes
