when Angela learned that her fathers
fortune had been mere gilded shell
which hid an immense burden of debt,
and when matters were cleared up
Angela pocketed the $1,000 that repre-
sented her patrimony and set forth to
make place for herself In the world.
Because of her youth and inexpe-
rience and ignorance she had happily
left her destination to mere chance.
