Publisher's Synopsis
She had not been brought up in America at all. She had been born in France, in a beautiful châ-teau, and she had been born heiress to a great for-tune, but, nevertheless, just now she felt as if she was very poor, indeed. And yet her home was in one of the most splendid houses in New York. She had a lovely suite of apartments of her own, though she was only eleven years old. She had had her own carriage and a saddle horse, a train of masters, and governesses, and servants, and was regarded by all the children of the neighbor-hood as a sort of grand and mysterious little prin-cess, whose incomings and outgoings were to be watched with the greatest interest.
