THE thing that I know least about is my beginning. For it is
possible to introduce Ethel Rawdon in so many picturesque ways that
the choice is embarrassing, and forces me to the conclusion that
the actual circumstances, though common-place, may be the most
suitable. Certainly the events that shape our lives are seldom
ushered in with pomp or ceremony; they steal upon us unannounced,
and begin their work without giving any premonition of their
importance. Consequently Ethel had no idea when she returned home
one night from a rather stupid entertainment that she was about to
open a new and important chapter of her life. Hitherto that life
had been one of the sweetest and simplest character-the lessons and
sports of childhood and girlhood had claimed her nineteen years;
and Ethel was just at that wonderful age when, the brook and the
river having met, she was feeling the first swell of those
irresistible tides which would carry her day by day to the haven of
all days.
