EVERY word of the story I am about to tell you is true. Dear reader, please regard it as strictly confidential, as the parties chiefly concerned are living, and at the present moment moving in the best society of the metropolis.
Some twenty years ago Daisy Benton, a bright and beautiful New England maiden of nineteen, had just finished her last year in school. By special invitation she went to New York city and to New Jersey to visit relatives. It was, in the early part of October, and she had permission from her loving parents to stay until after Christmas. She spent her first week in New York and was entertained with picture galleries and shopping expeditions until she was satisfied. 'Then she crossed. the ferry and the Jersey flats and was presently quartered in a sumptuous corner of the princely mansion in Broad-street, Newark, of her uncle, Bradcliffe Burnet. Her cousins were young ladies of social prominence, with a large and brilliant circle of gay people about them. Calls, drives, parties, and various other entertainments followed each other in one vast dizzy whirl. Among the gentlemen whose acquaintance Daisy made on the first evening of her arrival was Mr. Ha-thorn, the son of a bank president, handsome, witty, magnetic, elegant. He seemed to admire the little Massachusetts girl immensely.
