Pulp fiction proper grammar

I just came across this gem...
"...sticky fingers on her silk curtains was something up with which she would not put."
Okay. Yeah. Um. That doesn't read well.

Let's try...
"...sticky fingers on her silk curtains was something she would not put up with."
Ahh, better. And it is okay to end a sentence with a preposition.
