Little Miss Marker

Big Steve Halloway, a gambler and the proprietor of New York's Horseshoe Cabaret, is desperate for money. He arranges for fellow bookies, especially Sorrowful Jones, to each pay him $1,000 for his racehorse, Dream Prince, to lose. At the betting window, Sorrowful meets a gambler who has already lost $500 and now wants to place another bet but can't come up with $20. Instead, the man leaves his little girl, Marthy Jane, as security—a "marker." Known as "Marky," she winds up under the care of Sorrowful Jones and his lady friend, singer Bangles Carson.
