PROLOGUE.

A young man and a beautiful
young woman, lost and alone in
a wilderness for months. half
starved and in daily peril of
death from wild beasts and still
more savage irdians-t'ars IS the
central theme of the most foscf-
mating romance that has come
from Emerson Hough's pen.
Read and you will learn how
love came to them: how they
conducted themselves in this try
ing, unconventional situation:
how the mans chivalry and the
woman $ purity held them stead
fast to the ideals of civilization.
and how the strange episode
brought tragedies. esfrongements
and happiness.
