Part 38 di 49 · 6 min per leggere: part
In 38 Dolly and a Real Gentleman, severe winter weather strains horses and cabmen, while Dolly brings Jerry hot food and a considerate passenger waits for him to finish. The passenger, Wright, also stops a carter from beating his horses and argues that people must challenge wrongdoing when they can.
