THE GIPSY'S WARNING.

BY

MISS ELIZA A. DUPUY.

AUTHOR OF "ALL FOR LOVE," "THE MYSTERIOUS GUEST," "WAS HE GUILTY," "WHY DID HE MARRY HER," "THE CANCELLED WILL," "MICHAEL RUDOLPH," "THE PLANTER'S DAUGHTER," "WHO SHALL BE VICTOR," ETC., ETC. "The Gipsy's Warning" is a story of Monmouth's Rebellion, but there is far more of Love than of War in it. A brief, yet graphic picture of the terrors of that awful period in English history is given, but they are only incidental to the main story, the interest of which centers in a single family. The old baronet, his unscrupulous son, and the lovely girl, led while yet a child into the union which proves the terror of her life, are vividly, and clearly portrayed. The revengeful Gipsy and her son, the wild-hearted Sylvie, all contribute to the working out of a terrible retribution to the heartless man who cares only for himself, and his own interests. It is a charming love story, full of action, with not a page in it one would be tempted to skip.

PREFACE.

NOT many years since, a concealed room was discovered by an architect employed to make some alterations in an old English mansion. In it were found rich furniture, jewels heaped up on the dressing table, and on the sumptuous bed lay two skeletons, both supposed to have perished by violence.

That statement was the nucleus of the following story.
