This work of fiction commences THE story of Cecilia Grace's parentage was a curious one. Maurice Grace, a plodding, serious young doctor, with no pretension to good looks except his deep and quiet eyes, born of little more than peasant stock, had found himself at the age of hventy-eight or thereabouts doing locum tenens for Dr. Brady, of Knocklynn. Knocklynn is situated in a great wild country. The villages are small and scattered, the fanners poor and struggling. 'There is no middle-class there, unless the village shopkeepers count for such. 'There could be no lonelier spot for a young man cast away there as was Maurice Grace. Hardly any society came his way. The priest, a traveling school inspector or official of the Department of Agriculture or the Post Office: these made about the only society available. There were a few great houses in the neighborhood. But these houses-Arlo, Clounty now because of a recent tragedy, Kilrush House, where the master as but a child, the House of Drolnore-were nearly as much above Maurice Grace as the sky over him.
