Excerpt from A Noble Name, Vol. 1 of 3: A Novel, With Other Stories

To me has been a true, albeit a somewhat sad pleasure, to prepare for republication A Noble Name, the tale with which these volumes open.

It was written, alone of all the stories here brought together, in conjunction with Mrs. B. H. Buxton, author of Jennie of the Prince's.

She had made her mark some time before our acquaintance began, and al though she had always ample employment for her 'clever pen, she was never too busy during the period of our brief friend ship, to aid me with her bright suggestions and Willing hand.
