TO A BELOVED FRIEND, THE LADY HOWARD OF GLOSSOP. (WINIFRED MARY DE LISLE.)
In case it may be supposed that the African episode in this book was suggested by recent events in the Transvaal, I desire to state that it was written four years before the Jameson raid occurred.

Lady Kenilworth looked.
“Yes,” she said, impatiently. “Yes. Well?—what?—why?”
