PROLOGUE.

A romping, madcap, bevttch-
tne Irish girl, az Aish az St. Pat
rtck,s day tn the morning, Is
turned over to the care Of aris-
tocratic English relatives. They
are stiff and artificial, and she
Is as sweet and natural az q
healthy country girl can be.
They dislike her, but Peg holds
her own with jiaunty pride Ind in
the end, by her generosity and
btg heorfedness, Wins them over,
and, what Is more, wins her for
tune, and, what is still more, wins
a very gallant lover. This, ir,
brtef 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 1t into a novel, so
sympathetically, so brilliantly
that Peg as a heroine of fiction
Is as lopable as she was on the
stage.

slant attention to keep her alive. From
tremulous infancy she grew into deli.
cate youth She seemed child apart
Not needing her, Kingsnorth did not
love her. He gave her form of tol-
Grant affection. Too fragile to mix
with others. she was brought up at
home. Tutors furnished her education.
The winters she passed abroad with
her mother. When her mother died
she spent them with relations or
friends. The grim dampness Of the
English climate was too rigorous for a
life that needed sunshine.
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 we'll. A nature that
craved for sympathy and affection-as
the frail so often do-was repulsed by
those to whom affection was but a
form and sympathy term Of reproach.
1t was on her first homecoming
since her mothers death that her at
tention was really drawn to her IA
ther's Irish possessions.
By q curious coincidence she return
ed home on q day when Wilberforce
Kingsnorth had delivered an electrical
speech, invoking Providence to inter-
pose in the settlement Of the Irish
difficulty. He was noted for his hatred
Of the Irish. 1t was the one topic OF
conversation throughout dinner. And

Nathaniel was the old mans favor
ite. While still youth he iRculcated
into the boy all the tenets Of business,
morality and politics that had made
Wuberforce prosperous.
Pride In his name, a sturdy grasp OF
life. an unbending attitude toward
those beneath him and an abiding rev.
erence for law and order and fealty to
the throne-these were the foundations
on which the father built Nathaniers
character.
Next in point of regard came the
elder daughter, Monica. Patrician OF
feature. naughty in manner. exclusive
by nature. she had the true Kings
north air. She had no disturbing
ideas" no yearning for things not OF
her station. She was contented with
the world as it had been made for her
and seemed duly proud and grateful to
have been bon q Kingsnorth.
She was an excellent musician, rode
fairly to hounds, bestowed prizes al
the local charities with grace and dis
tinction-as became Kingsnorth-and
looked coldly out at the world from
behind the impenetrable barriers OF an
old name.
When she married Frederick Chi
chester, the rising barrister, connected
with six county families. 1t was q
proud day for old Kingsnorth. His
family had originally made their money
in trade. Tue Chichesters had accu'
mulated a fortune by professions. The
distinction in England Is marked.
Frederick Chichester came Of long
line of illustrious lawyers. One had
even reached the distinction Of being
made judge. He belonged to an hon
orable profession. The old man was
overjoyed.
He made q handsome settlement on
his eldest daughter on her marriage
and felt he had done well by her, even
as she had by him.
Five years after Monica's birth An
gela Unexpectedly was born to the
Kingsnorths. A delicate. sickly infant,
it seemed as If the splendid blood OF
the family had expended its vigor on
the elder children. Angela needed con.

N sisters conduct was beyond
u bounds when he learned who
the wounded man was. He
ordered the soldiers to take the man
and themselves away. The magistrate
interposed and begged him at least TO
let O'Connell rest there until a doctor
could patch him up. 1t might be dan
perous to take him back without medi-
cal treatment. He assured Nathanlel
that the moment they could move him
he would be lodged in the county jail
Nathaniel went back to his study
as the sorry procession passed on to
the front door. He sent Immediately
for his sister. The reply came back
that she would see him at dinner. He
commanded her to come to him at
once.
In a few minutes Angela came into
the room. She was deathly pale. Her
voice tremblcd as she spoke:
"What do you want?'
"Why did you bring that man here"
because he is wounded"
"Such scoundrels are better dead"
IT don't think so. Nor do I think
him a scorndrel."
"He came here to attack landlords
to attack meme! And you bring him
to my house and with that rabble! It's
outrageous! Monstrous!"
II couldn't leave him with those
heartless wretches to die in their
hands"
"He leaves here the moment a doc
tor has attended him."

control his anger. After a pause he

cause one of our forefathers cheated
the world into giving him q fortune

they were worth we have tried to
canonize him and put halo around
the name Of Kingsnorth. To me it

and vain and ignorant-the power OF
money over intellect How did we be-
come owners Of this miserable piece
Of land? A Kingsnorth swindled its
rightful owner-lent him money on
usury. bought up his bills and his
mortgages and when he couldn't pay
foreclosed on him. No wonder there's
a curse on the village and on u.s."
Kingsnorth tried to speak, but she
/ stopped him:
"Wait a moment. 1t was good
stroke of business taking this estate

of business. Our name has been built
