Transcriber's Note:

This story was first serialized in the New York Family Story Paper as Jaquelina; or, The Outlaw's Bride during 1882. The text used in this edition comes from a later reprint, part of Street & Smith's Eagle Series no. 192, in which it was printed alongside the author's An Old Man's Darling. The spelling of the title in this e-book is taken from the original 1882 version.
