Summary "You Can Search Me" by Hugh McHugh is a humorous novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative centers around the character John Henry and his friend Jefferson "Bunch" as they navigate various humorous misadventures related to money, marriage, and magic. The story unfolds through a series of comedic events, dealing with race tracks, the pressures of impending marriage, and the theatrical world in which they attempt to launch an illusionist's career. The plot begins with Bunch expressing anxiety over his upcoming wedding due to financial troubles stemming from a bad bet on horses. John Henry devises a scheme to recoup the lost funds by partnering with a magician named Signor Petroskinski. As the duo embarks on this venture, they encounter a range of eccentric characters, including Bunch's relatives and others in the theatrical circle, leading to humorous misunderstandings and unexpected outcomes. Ultimately, the pair's quest for quick wealth takes a turn when their plans intertwine with romantic entanglements and revelations, culminating in a twist regarding their finances linked to a gold mine.
