The Marriage of Elinor-
In spite of the disapproval of friends and relatives Elinor Dennistoun marries the Honorable Philip Compton, a handsome, fascinating man, who even in his own "fast" set is called a "scamp." Before they are married Elinor saves him from the results of one of his crimes by a falsehood, of which at the time she does not realize the meaning. After the failure of their marriage, and they are separated, this falsehood again plays a part in the lives of both.
