PROLOGUE.

"A ron.ping, n,adcap, bewitch-
ting Irish girl, as Irish as St. Pat
rick's day in the morning, is
turned over to the care of arts
tocrafic English relatives. They
are stiff and artificial, and she
Is as sweet and natural as a
healthy country girl can be.
They dislike her, but Peg holds
her own with jaunty pride and in
the end, by her generosity and
big heartedness, wins then, over,
and, what is more, wins her for
tune, and, what is still more, wins
q very gallant lover. This, in
brief is the story of a play
which by its originality, sweet
ness and charm, has been one of
the most phenomenal successes
New York has seen in a long
time. The author of the play
has turned il into a novel, so
alphabetically, so brilliantly,
that Peg as a heroine of fiction
Is as lopable as she was on the
stage.

Not needing her, Kingsnorth did not
love her. He gave her form of tol.

home. Tutors furnished her education.
The winters she passed abroad with
her mother. When her mother died
she spent them with relations OF

English climate was too rigorous for q

Angela had nothing in common with
either her brother or her sister. She
avoided them and they her. They did
not understand her. She understood
them only too well. A nature that
craved for sympathy and affection-as
the frail so often do-was repulsed by
those to whom affection was but a

for the first time really angered her
