We notice this story because its authoress will one day, we believe,
   produce a powerful novel.—­Spectator.

   The reader is carried along with unflagging and exciting interest, and
   the book is full of characters finely sketched, and of passages
   powerfully written.—­Patriot.

   That the author of “Twice Lost” can write well, the book itself
   furnishes sufficient evidence.—­Nation.

   This is a striking story.  It has a freshness and originality about it
   which are very pleasant.—­Morning Advertiser.

   Without being a sensation novel this is a most exciting and attractive
   story.—­Daily News.

   A most romantic story, the interest being well sustained throughout,
   and everything coming right at the end.  Any one must be entertained
   by it.—­John Bull.
