"Who is she?" she demanded almost sharply . . . Frontispiece
"To begin with, and not to mince matters, I want some money"
She found herself face to face with John Hungerford
"The stranger was—my father"

REDEEMED
Two lives that once part are as ships that divide,
When, moment on moment, there rushes between
The one and the other a sea—
Ah, never can fall from the days that have been
A gleam on the years that shall be.
