Answer: The storyline / Plot summary
The story “Hearts and Hands” is set on a train, eastbound B. M. Express, where an elegantly dressed, luxurious pretty young woman Miss Fairchild meets by chance one of his old acquaintances Mr Easton. Mr Easton greets her with his left hand as his right hand is handcuffed with the left hand of another glum-faced, heavily built and roughly dressed man seated next to him.
Miss Fairchild is surprised to see that they are handcuffed. Sensing Mr Easton’s embarrassment, the second man comes to the rescue by explaining that Mr Easton is a marshal who is taking him to Leavenworth prison as he has got seven years of jail term for counterfeiting.
