                                                                                                 JILTED FOR A DEGENERATE LORD!

Harry Clavering loved Julia Brabazon.

After a brilliant career at Oxford, Harry's future was bright. But then, the selfish Julia met the degenerate Lord Ongar and fell in love with his title and -- and his money. She left Harry and married the Lord.

The marriage was a disaster, of course -- mitigated only by Lord Ongar's death a year later from his dissolutions. A wealthy widow now, Lady Julia Ongar returns from the Continent to find that her name has been besmirched by rumors of infidelity -- by Lord Ongar himself.

Now she works to regain the heart of her abandoned lover, Harry Clavering.

But Harry is engaged to Florence Burton, the daughter of his new employer.

Harry does not let Julia know of the engagement. He must choose now between an old flame -- and a new love.
