About this book
The contents list names two titles by Mrs. Alex. McVeigh Miller, The Bride of the Tomb; or, Lancelot Darling's Betrothed, and Queenie's Terrible Secret; or, A Young Girl's Strange Fate. A verdict is given that Miss Lawrence came to her death by a dagger-thrust inflicted by her own hand, probably under a temporary aberration of mind. A character named Doctor Pratt attends the funeral of Miss Lawrence, looking grave and sad, and dignified as the mournful occasion demanded.
Doctor Pratt stops at a fine hotel and sends up his card to a person whom he designated as Mr. Colville. Mr. Shelton orders a woman to lead the way to Miss Lawrence's room immediately. A speaker named Mr. Lyle says he has the word of her physician that within a month she will either be able to appear in court, and do what is necessary to defend her rights, or she will be in her grave.
