very unwillingly, occupying the posi-

Through the years Of honor and

most unprecedented in writings of this

her life, spent so largely in French

tune with all the old reality and en-
jOyment. This time the book is made
up Of short stories strung together by
the personality of their narrator, an
Irish gentleman in the service of the
grand monarque."
That he is an Irishman and a gen
tleman he makes very evident by the
number of ''forlorn hopes" and I'M

The title story, 1.-THE Last Recruit Of
C1are's,' is full of Celtic humor and pa
thos, the pathos proving so much the
stronger in the end that the keynote
of painful tragedy is struck which finds
an echo in every tale of the volume
except the last.
1t is tragedy, however, without the
hopelessness of 1.-The Kings Favor" or
the bitter gloom of 1.-THE Last Sacra-
ment" or the impotent pride of 1.-The
Case Of M. de Lussac"-a tragedy
which leaves peace in the fond Irish

Ella refuses to marry the man to whom
she has been unconsciously sold, and
ne makes known to the world the de-
falcation Of Borkman. During the
eight years Of John Gabriels imprison-
ment Ella supports Gunhild in the
Rentheim manor house and takes to
herself Erhart, Borkman's son. On his
release John Gabriel goes back to the
same house, but he and his wife never
see each other although she
hears the ceaseless tread of the
wounded wolf" in the gallery
above, where he waits till the directors
shall come and beg him to save the
bank. At the same time Erhart re-
turns to his mothers care, who rears
him in the eternal presence of the fam
lily shame and seeks to force him into
the belief that he must redeem the
family honor.
Ihe play opens with the visit Of Ella
to the Borkmans, whom she has not
seen for many years. She believes she
is dying and comes to claim Erhart
from the selfish aims of those around
him. On this night of elimination,
they each make their appeal to Erhart,
Ella, that he shall devote himself to
her for the little remaining space OF
her life; Gunhild, that he shall give up
his life to redeeming the stained honor
OF her family; Borkman, that he shall
help him to start life again. It de-
velops that Erhart, born and reared
amid self-seeking, is not without the
fatal inheritance, and, in quest Of life
and pleasure, and regardless of the selfish
agony 1t causes, he goes off in the
company Of a woman with a history,
