Excerpt from Is Marriage a Lottery?: 16547

A strange introduction, this, of two handsome persons whom fate had so singularly brought together, but fact is always stranger than fiction. Not so strange, perhaps, that a scion and pet of the famous four hundred should fall in love with the most charming and beautiful of the proverbially lovely Castilian race. But the manner of it, and the odd method by which Providence secures the final consummation of its plans; but Love goes where it is sent and Fate arranges the means, hence this story.

Let us explain who this interesting couple are by what curious means they came together thus, and we shall better comprehend their future history.

The city of Chihuahua had been unusually dull, the weather cold and unsettled, but now it began to clear up and the days were most delightful with an exhilarating breeze wafting down from the summits of the Sierra Madre.
