Stumbled upon this review for How Molly Made Good (aka: How Molly Malone Made Good)---a 1915 silent drama film which is one of the first films to feature cameo appearances by major celebrities. It survives in the Library of Congress and is available on DVD.
According to Wikipedia, the writer of the film, Burns Mantle, may have been influenced by the globe-trotting adventure of Nellie Bly in 1889, when the reporter circumnavigated the globe in a specified amount of time using several means of conveyance and visiting as many famous cities as possible.
And according to the review below, one of those was....HARMON-ON-THE-HUDSON.....it might be worth getting the DVD just to see if there is any footage of Harmon.
