ARGUMENT
""The story of "The Yokohama Maid" opens in Kybosho, a suburb
of Yokohama, where the guests are assembling to celebrate
the sixteenth birthday of 0 Sing-a-Song. Faitedo, the Mayor of
Kybosho informs her that she can inherit her dead father's fort
une only through a marriage with him on her , eighteenth birth
day, for so the will decrees. She is in despair but with the op
timism of youth hopes to find a way out of the dilemma. Kno
gude, the Mayor's secretary, is hopelessly in love with 0 Sing-a-Song,
whose companion, Kissimee, is quite as much enamoured
oi Knogud. Fattedo wishes his future wife to be the most
talked of woman in Japan and so instructs her to visit the Unit
ed States to complete her education thera. The end of Act I
sees her departure for America accompanied by Kissimee and
Tung Waga, her old nurse.
Two years elapse, and the travellers return. Fattedo arranges
for an immediate wedding ceremony. Just as matters approach
a climax, a young American, Harry Courtcase, appears upon the
scene. He announces that 0 ing-a-Son is already married, and
to him. Fattedo, disconcerted, retorts that by the terms of the
will, 0 Sing-a-Scg is now a pauper. . An argument over the
terms of the will ensue, and in the end Cortcase proves that the
terms of the will have not been violated, that 0 Sing-a-Song is
legally his bride and heirepp of her fatherrs wealth.
