Mary T. Waggaman, Anna T. Sadlier, Magdalen Rock, Mary E. Mannix, Mary G. Bonesteel, Eugene Uhlrich, Maurice Francis Egan, and seven other Roman Catholic writers have written the thirty stories which make up this volume. Nearly all of them are sweet, simple little love stories, but some are merry ones, like the story of the pretty stenographer, who, thru a misdirected letter, succeeded in marrying a millionaire, and some are sad, like the story of the two lovers who, parted for a life time, met at last as inmates of the Home which the Little Sisters of the Poor provide for the needy and aged.

The events recorded here transpire in the shut-away section of the mountains of northern Georgia, where two women seek seclusion. “The story concerns a mysterious crime, and a strong-willed, long-suffering religious woman is the central figure. It recalls, in the solution of the mystery, and in one powerfully dramatic passage, Miss Braddon’s famous ‘Henry Dunbar.’ It also recalls (as vividly) superficial facts of the Borden murder mystery at Fall River about sixteen years ago.” (N. Y. Times).
