SYNOPSIS OF PRECEDING BOOK
Ethel would have never become a Camp Fire Girl excepting for her great-aunt Susan.
Susan Carpenter was her Grandmother Hollister's only sister, living in Akron, Ohio. Her family consisted of Mr. Thomas Harper and herself. Tom's parents had been her friends, and when they were taken Aunt Susan legally adopted him and his little brother Fred, but the younger one died before graduating, while Tom went through college and was now a rising young lawyer.
