Part One. Lucile, the Comtesse de Nevers, was engaged to a nobleman, Lord Alfred Vargrave. Being deeply in love, Lucile did not conceal her affection, and her attentions finally wearied Lord Alfred, and he neglected his fiancée. They quarreled finally, and separated, but not until Alfred had vainly attempted a reconciliation. Lucile told him that she was afraid to trust him but proposed a year's separation. Before the year was over the Comtesse received word of the engagement of Lord Alfred to Miss Darcy, wherein she wrote him asking the return of her letters, which in accordance with his pledge, he was to bring to her personally. Alfred obeyed and started for Lucile's home with the missives. Upon his arrival he was amazed to see how beautiful Lucile was, and how much other men admired her. His old affection returned and he pleaded with her to forgive him. Lucile refused to listen to him. He managed, by watching her, to meet her presumably by accident, and gained her consent to accompany her. On the road they encountered a furious summer storm and took refuge in a cave. Lucile, whose one dread was of lightning, was hysterical from terror, and did not repulse Alfred when he clasped her in his arms. She consented to forgive her recreant lover. Part Two. The Duc de Luvois had long vainly courted Lucile. His jealous eye soon noted that the man who stood in his way was Lord Alfred, and as the latter left the house, the Duc drew a revolver, determined to kill him. The brave Lucile noted the action, throw her arms about him and pinned him fast. Alfred looked around at this moment, just in time to see, as he imagined, his Lucile embracing another man. Deciding she was false, he waited not for explanations, but hurried to the home of Miss Darcy, and they were promptly wedded. The Duc returned sadly to his castle, while Lucile, weary of the world, sought refuge in a nunnery. Twenty-five years later, Lord Alfred, happy in the affection of his devoted wife and child, now grown to manhood, had forgotten the sadness of his youth The Duc had remained unmarried, but into his lonely life one ray of sunshine had penetrated. This was the daughter of his dead sister, a girl of sixteen. With her he visited England, as he felt his life of seclusion would not be a happy one for the young girl. In England, Lord Alfred's son and the Duc's niece met and promptly lost their hearts. When Lord Alfred learned of his son's affections, he placed no obstacle in the path of his only child's happiness. He felt no animosity toward the Duc, simply feeling that, although they had been rival suitors at one time for the hand of Lucile, the past should now he buried and forgotten. But the Duc, feeling that it was he who lost him Lucile's love, never forgave. When he learned his niece wished to marry the son of his ancient enemy he refused absolutely to sanction the union. The Duc, a French General, and Alfred's son, a lieutenant in the English army, were shortly called to the front. Part Three. Lord Alfred's son was wounded, and, being carried to the hospital tent, was nursed tenderly by Lucile. The young soldier had no desire to live, knowing that he could never wed the girl of his choice. Lucile gradually learned from him the cause of his secret sorrow, and going to the Duc entreated him for the memory of the love he once bore her, not to make desolate the life of his young niece as her love had been made desolate. The Duc was finally won over, and the young lovers reunited, while Lucile returned to her convent.
