Henrietta was the victim of circumstances.

Youth, however, willovercome much, and when Richard Bently appears in the mountains, lifetakes on a new interest for Henrietta.
When her mother dies Henrietta goes to live with Mrs. Lovell, who knewher father years ago in the little Vermont town. Mrs. Lovell determinesto do what she can to secure for Henrietta the place in society and theinheritance that is rightfully hers. The means employed and the successattained--but that's the story.
